The colour of the number three....

I distinctly remember an argument between my younger brother and myself about the colour of the number three. I was five years old and he was about three and a half. I think he was insisting that its dark red and I was saying that its light blue. My Mum intervened and said it was yellow or something. Anyone outside our family would have thought we were a bunch of nutters! Synaesthesia is hereditary but apparently just passes along the female line.
My numbers are:

0 clear like water
1 white
2 yellow
3 light blue
4 orange
5 red
6 dark blue
7  bottle green
8 black
9 fir green

Sesame street really used to annoy me when I was little because the numbers were the wrong colours when they came up on the screen. My door number back home in Dublin is green and yellow. Its not coloured that way, thats just the colours I have on the numbers. And my door number here in High wycombe is dark green. I live in flat 2 so that is yellow. I like my flat being yellow. Its a nice bright colour.
Its weird when I used to mention having colours on numbers, people just thought I was making it up, but my numbers still have the same colours they did when I was a kid.

In fact I think my entire family except my Dad would probably still argue about the colour of the number three.
