What colour is Wednesday? (Or any other day, for that matter.)

[Beeyump]

I have always thought of the days of the week as having colours - sometimes I see the word written out in colour, other times like a coloured calendar... I know I'm not totally weird, because a Kate Atkinson book I read a while ago made reference to this! So:
Monday - yellow
Tuesday - green
Wednesday - orange
Thursday - dark green
Friday - purple
Saturday - some kind of light colour, not very sure actually
Sunday - dark red

Anyone else?!

Oo, I love the idea of a spreadsheet! Someone else do it

Wednesday is lilac! I actually got irritated reading your op as the colours were all wrong! How ridiculous is that? To me the days of the week are

Monday - red
Tuesday - green
Wednesday- lilac
Thursday - burgundy
Friday - light orangey yellow
Saturday - navy blue
Sunday - Royal blue

Well, DoTheStrand, I think you'll find red is an unpopular choice for a Saturday. sorry.

I feel like a Thunderball announcer: 'and making its first appearance here on a Saturday, the Red ball...'

Wednesday still green by a majority of 27 votes to a mere 11 for orange, but yellow is making a late spurt here with 8 so far.

I too thought Wednesday was orange before I read the thread.

Wednesday is BLACK!

Monday - light blue
Tuesday - pale yellow
Thursday - purple
Friday - bright yellow
Saturday - orange
Sunday - pale green.

Numbers anyone? 1 = blue, 2 = yellow, 3= dark red ..

Monday- blue
Tuesday - yellow
Wednesday - orange
Thursday - red
Friday -pink
Saturday -raspberry
Sunday - warm brown

Do you think Orange doing that film day aha stuck for Wednesday. And Friday for sure is pink.

Wednesday is Brown.

Am I the only one who thinks that Wednesday is red?

Monday = light blue
Tuesday = browny orange
Wednesday = red
Thursday = yellow
Friday = red
Saturday = orange
Sunday = yellow

No green days at all. although I could just about cope with the idea of orange days being purple.

January = Yellow
Feb = Blue
March = yellow
April = Pink
May = Peach
June = Orange
July = Yellow
August = gold
September = Purple
October = Orange
November = Green
December = Red

I don't get it for numbers, but do for some place names. For instance, Edinburgh is quite a dark green.

Wednesday is light blue.

Monday -red
Tuesday -yellow
Wednesday-green
Thursday -blue
Friday-darker green
Saturday-white
sunday-I think white too.

Green seems to be a popular choice for dense day eh! Orange a close second.

I had never thought about this before but green just came into my head and I see lots of others think so too. Will have to work out the other days now

Weird this isn't it.

Monday - white
Tuesday - pink or orange, a similar colour to Thursday but I think slightly more pinkish
Wednesday - yellow
Thursday - see above, a kind of orangeish colour
Friday - brown
Saturday - white
Sunday - grey

The strongest are Weds which is definitely yellow and Friday which is definitely brown. The others are a bit murky, but with absolute certainty I can say Tuesday and Thursday match each other colour wise as do Saturday and Monday and to a slightly lesser extent Sunday. Not sure why Weds and Fri are so strong.

Has been this way as long as I can remember.

Monday is light blue
Tuesday is yellow
Wednesday is definitely bottle green
Thursday is orangey yellow
Friday is red
Saturday is white
Sunday is grey

I want what you lot have my mind works by compartments rather than colours, I can quite clearly see when I'm taking things out their filing cabinet in my head when I think

I'd say I'd happily swap for colours but am greedy and would like both

You could just have your filing cabinets in loads of different colours. That would be great, and kill two birds etc

DeliciousIrony -- so far, yes!

Anyone else see colours for colour nouns that are the wrong colour?

I find 'Red' is OK, but 'Green' unfortunately looks pink, 'Blue' is greyish-turquoise, and don't get me started on scarlet and crimson...

Monday - White
Tuesday - Pink/Orange
Wednesday - Bottle Green
Thursday - Bright Yellow
Friday - Silver
Saturday - Black
Sunday - Red

Lancelottie that makes my head hurt! What does scarlet look like? It makes me think of thread/ribbons.

Anyway - today is bottle green Thursday, yayy!

Scarlet, unfortunately, is a very dark red, almost purply. Crimson is light, bright orange.

This is frankly a bugger when it comes to remembering that they're the other way round, near as dammit.

Sometimes it goes with the spelling. Grey is a soft, gentle, pinkish-grey. Gray, on the other hand, is a threatening blue-black...

Lancelottie I see the weekends as a picnic at the bottom of the hill, all lovely and so very deserving after the week of hill climbing

Yep, definitely green.
