I remember when I was young, my school uniform was gray.
When I was 19, I loved the colour gray SO much I wore only that colour for one whole year! I only stopped because my Mum begged me to.
Now I am older, I still love gray, but I mix it up. It is my favourite colour.
It is strange how things like music can bring you straight back in time, to a nice or a bad event or season.
Recently as I drove to work, around the corner from my home, I noticed a beautiful coloured car. It stood out for all the other cars in my Town.
I carried on driving, and each time I saw that, I loved it, but I wondered why.
One day recently, as I saw it again, it suddenly dawned on my where I had seen the colour before. It was the colour or similar colour of the Anglia car that my Mum had bought brand new, when I was in my teens.
Back then, the colour was nothing special, but now to me it is special. There are not many cars with that colour. This car, I don’t know what make it is, but it seems a richer version of the old Anglia car.
To me it is beautiful. And just how music can bring you straight back, this beautiful coloured car, did just that.

I know what you mean about
I know what you mean about smells. My gran's old house had this bush surrounding the garden, it has a destinct frangrance that I can't describe, but each time me and my partner go for a walk in Stanton park they have the same bush and those memories of my gran come flooding back.
How lucky we are to have taste, sight, hearing and are able to feel too.
Interesting read.
