Do You Have Any...

[stewey]

....things that keep you awake at night? For example the problem question that I have: which came first, orange or orange? Is the orange that we eat called an orange because it looks like the colour orange; or is the colour orange called orange because it is the same colour as the orange orange that we eat......Hope that's clear. Do you have any things that make you say ummmmm, and keep you awake at night?

Yes.x

Hi stewey, long time no see. How are you?

Must admit, often stay awake worrying about things.... money, daughter, on-going court cases etc.

Now I have something else to worry about, had never really given the 'orange' thing much thought before.... will no doubt stay awake for hours over that one, cheers.

Btw, happy New Year to you.

Come on, Katie: I showed you mine.

The colour orange takes its name from the fruit.
The fruit was originally 'A Norange', but the 'n' shifted from the 'norange' to the indefinite article proceding it.
The fruit came to us complete with its name from Spain, where it was (and still is) 'naranja'

Hiya, Missy. Thanks, and the same to you.

Great! I'm going to be having nightmares about oranges now. Thanks stewey. Lol

Thing that keep me awake at night is the ongoing situation with work. Other than that I'm fine. x

Hiya stewey, for some unknown reason my son worries about what colour a smurf turns when you strangle him! Perhaps I dropped him when he was a baby!
