Colour Code

There’s a stretch of the railway that runs close to the M1.  You have quite a good view of the traffic travelling in the same direction; vehicles going the other way are generally just a blur.  This morning cruising south along the similarly-bound carriageway I noticed a yellow lorry being driven by a man in a yellow tee-shirt, then a white van with a man in a white shirt, then a red car with the driver in red and then a blue pick-up with the driver in blue.  And then zipping in the opposite direction, a black and yellow 2CV.  Like a bumble bee.  It broke the spell and from that point on, everything was higgledy-piggledy again.  Damn 2CVs.
