Sorry to destroy the batting average but neither White nor Black are colours! Pink is a pastel too.

There are only three primary colours. Though what they are depends on what you are talking about. Three secondary colours and the in-between tertiary colours, which don't have proper names. So not using a name more than once ain't going to provide a result. The likely explanation of why the task is so difficult!

Question needs re-framing!

I think you must have all gone mad, surely Judy Garland gets it in one with SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW and the Wizard of Oz could sort out Merlins problems on the Yellow Brick Road in Ridge Terrace .

The challenge was to name groups/bands Foxy, not songs (even though you have unintentionaly named a group, RAINBOW ) Oh and by the way, I whent mad many years ago and am still getting progressively worse

Zebras madame; they come in many colours. But, az a general rule, zebra sould be ze same colour as zepanties!

[Merlin]

Ho!Ho! 3G :dribble:

[Merlin]

Ok then 3G take black and white out of the equation can you name ten? Another thing 3G my question doesn't need re-framing it has achieved what it set out to achieve. People having a bit of banter and fun and got the old grey cells working!

Any way Keith, Rainbow aint a colour!

And Cympil, how could you mention that song on here you should be ashamed of yourself!
