Green helmet, blue jacket, yellow trousers and red boots. Friends called me Primary Colour Man. And all was well.
But now I have some yellow ski boots and it's all gone titsup.
What's my next move?
Orange trous?

FlyingStantoni, Wood Green trous - but then you'd have to move the helmet!

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Tweed plus fours puts you at the end of the Picadilly Line - Amersham. There's only one way out from there, the platform swap reversal - only works offpeak though.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

The big issue is, when you've just had your new bouffant, finding a helmet to fit over your High Barnet.

FlyingStantoni, green isn't a primary colour. Your friends are buffoons.

You know it makes sense.

I went yellow kecks, red jacket mid season last year and the yellow kecks definitely improved my skiing. Unfortunately I've now bought a nuclear lime colour jacket so the yellow kecks are out and have had to move to red (I have swamp green in reserve). Need a new helmet - was quite attracted to Wasabi but think it might need to be Cyan. & they say women are bad for clothes.

Bright green strides, cobalt blue jacket, black and white boots. Black helmet somewhat letting the side down but it cost a fortune so I aint changing it.

Monium, depends - Green is an additive primary (red, green, blue) as in the monitor you're reading this on and the biology in your eyeballs. Its not in the subtractive set (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow) as in printing. In fact the human eye has twice the resolution in green than in Blue or Red - a suspected evolutionary throwback to when green was a very useful colour to be able to tell the subtle differences in.

I used to be a vision in muted earth-tones, beige brown, fudge brown, chocolate brown, crap brown. But that jacket was worse for wear and a very pleasant purchase from a fellow snowhead of a bright green North Face jacket had to happen... just in time for all the instructors at Courchevel to adopt the same colour last year, so the missus couldn't find me.
