What colour is Wednesday?

So, I'm watching the football am bored and was just musing that yellow is a very Ukraine colour - it just suits it. I have no explanation of why. So then I got thinking about random things that have colours in my head. Wednesday is pale green. Tuesday is pale blue. DH thinks I'm weird and that the days don't have colours. But DD says Wednesday is purple she is wrong
So my question is, why do some people associate colours with random things and other people don't?

Wednesday is red. I don't know but it just is.

I also love Gene Hunt. On any day/colour.

I don't have Synesthesia but really love this thread. For some reason it makes me happy that there are people who see the world that way Smile

@LidoLady

Synesthesia is very common in people with autism and other neuro-divergent conditions. My DD has ADHD and achieved straight A*s in all her GCSE & A Level exams as she sees all facts and information in colours which helps her to remember huge amounts of information quickly. She can look at sheets of maths/science formulae, long lists of history dates, language vocab etc, any information really and memorise it all at a glance.

She said that I apparently have a brown glow, which I felt was a very disappointing colour to be, but apparently I'm a cosy warm brown!

This is interesting- I was flicking through the thread and about to say, I’m amazed how many people appear to have synaesthesia- I thought it was fairly unusual. Both my mother and sister have this with days of the week, numbers etc, and my sister has dyslexia and my mum likely does too. I don’t have any of these experiences!

Not sure if someone has said this but the radio times dictates the colour of the days. So Wednesday is green.

Denmark is red.
England is white.
I think those might be football based though.
