I found this quote in Gay and just had to share:

Quote:
Matron put down the last blanket, then sat on the edge of the mattress, and read through Jo’s lengthy effusion.


Tut, tut, naughty Matey!! Very Happy

Also, though its not scandalous, this quote from Feud made me giggle and reminisce about a certain drabble: (and I was too lazy to start another topic)

Quote:
Miss Annersley came last in a pretty lime-green woollen frock

What was it with EBD and lime-green? Shocked

Wasn't it a very 1960's colour?

trying desperately to think when various books were written

Don't really see Hilda as a lime-green kind of woman. Where's Lesley?

Decidedly not, I see Hilda in heathery shades or else light blue.

Now I'm definitley your lime green kind of gal. I doubt it suits me, but I like it. It's a very cheerful hue. I wore a lime green top and lime and black stiped trousers when I gave a speech to an audience of psychiatrists and assorted health professionals (and the health minister). I thought it would be a nice splash of colour amongst the suits. Probably it confirmed their worst suspiscions about me; that I'm not only mad, but lime green and mad.

Definitely blues I think! Laughing

I expect Elinor made her wear lime-green. Twisted Evil

The shade wasn't specified, but Hilda was 'gracing the scene' in a green dress for the St Patricks Day celebration when the pantomime was cancelled due to most of the costumes being burnt. (In Two Sams, I think).

She was also referred to on one occasion (and I have no idea where) as having been waering her scarlet twin-set before break, though now she is in full regalia - ie her MA gown. She had called an assembley for some reason, but as I don't remember the book, I don't know why.

She is often reffered to as wearing blue - to match her eyes, presumably.

But aren't her eyes grey?

Her eyes are referred to as grey in some books - but in the vast majority they are 'blue-grey'. When I write about her I mention that her eyes can change colour if she becomes angry or upset.

Maybe they are grey - unless she is wearing blue in which case they reflect the colour and appear to be bluey-grey

I've found that quite a few of the 'blue' eyed people in my family actually have eye colour that changes, in my dad's case between blue, green and grey. Grey tends to indicate tiredness or illness,and the more vivid the predominante colour the weller and more high spirited or emotional they feel. It's odd to see the changes between blue and green though.

It was Excitements, when they announce the Coming of Age celebrations...

My eyes change colour too... from brown to green... I can't figure out if it relates to my mood or not. People do tend to say to me that I have lovely eyes though... A man old enough to be my grandfather told me that yesterday!

I have brown/green hazel eyes that do change colour. Both to do with mood/illness and what I am wearing.

My mother used to always be able to tell when I was feeling 'off' by what my eyes looked like. The black rim around them also gets thicker when I feel yucky.

Her eyes are steely grey and resenble peices of ice when she is telling someone off, but they are blue when she has 'never yet needed glasses'!
