No default. I was aiming for a reverse rainbow, but misjudged which would be blue.

Frustrating! I knew I was on the right lines with purple grrr. Blue is a real classic connections category - and my least favourite kind!

First blue line was a case of fat fingers. Purple was by default, but I liked it, it was probably gettable with a bit more thought.
