26. What are/were your school's colors?

I can't remember. There was definitely blue in it somewhere, because at the open evening prior to starting, my mother - who had a natural gift for embarrassing myself and my sister - remarked how the blue in my tie would go with my eyes, and thereafter a classmate who'd been in earshot kept reminding me of this whenever he had a chance to.
