For the last few weeks we have been obsessed with colour Diane Abbott, John Terry, Liverpool football club etc. So I think it might be helpful if we know each other’s colour. I will start the ball rolling as coming out as purple with green spots. All comments I make should be taken in the context of what is culturally acceptable for purple green spotted people.Apart from Fridays when I have a blue rinse and call myself Tracy.

I'm a very pale blue, but in the summer I go bright red for a while before becoming a pallid milky white.

A rather lovely golden-brown, with the occasional splash of red when I'm working.

Blue and white striped due to the duff football club I am made to support on account of having been born near there.

I'm a kind of iridescant silvery green, a bit like a fly's arse.

Completely transparent. People are always telling me they can see right through me....
Sorry, that was awful wasn't it?

VCG, can they see you coming?

Monochrome, black and white - a bit like the J Major Spitting Image puppet.

Magnolia, except in Summer when I go Beige or Straw if I'm out too long.

Taupe with a hint of badger, darkening to horse chestnut in the summer months

I think you have all been rather flippant on this important topic.
I googled the Dulux Colour Chart and it turns out I am Tuscan Treasure. Matt, not Gloss.
I think the potential impact for race relations here is huge... when we are all subdivided accordingly, rather than just a few arbitrary groups (Black, White etc) there'll be thousands of different flavours and we'll be having the Music of Maraschino Mocha Origin awards, we'll be going for a sweet and sour with an Earth Glaze waiter, dancing to a samba rhythym with Mr Delhi Bazaar and telling JeniB she should have put sun screen on because now her shoulders are Volcanic Splash

Also helpful to express emotions...going Tarragon Glory with envy, Azure Fusion with cold, and Hot Paprika with anger...

Looks like a fine basis for a sub to me, Ironduke ...
eg Dulux bosses celebrate another year in the Macassar Ebony

Purple, of course. Aren't we all now?
Posted 1 year ago # -
Yes, but what sort of purple. If you want a mauve for a neighbour vote Gove.

We 'ad a family of them purples move into our street. Won't be long before we're completely marooned.
OK so I used that joke already but worth another outing, I thought.

Maybe there should be a follow up story where we all turn purple but end up reinventing bigotry over some absurd subtle difference?

What, like the Mulberry Bursts taking on the Dusted Fondants?

Exactly. No dogs, raspberry bellini, or heliotropes.
