Colour Association Game

[minni]

Let's try something different.
You've had a go at the Word Association game already.... and please keep it going, but now I've got an idea for a new game.

I am going to post a colour (eg red).... the next person comes along and gives the word that they associate with red (eg roses), then posts another colour.
So the post would be:
roses.......... blue
(and so on, and so on). Have I lost you? Hope not. Let's get going.
