OK...I give up....what is this "2" theme this week please.
Rivers, colours ?

[Flyhalf]

Colours.

[mikey4444]

Thanks BJ...the mist has swirled around a bit but still not as clear as I would like !

[Flyhalf]

If it's any consolation, I was even further off-beam.
I kept thinking 2 was numbers!

[mikey4444]

The problem I have with colours is that I can't see any in the answers I already have, where "2" is mentioned, TINPOT for 5a ( Insignificant river in 2 )

OK...PO is a river and TINPOT could mean insignificant but where is the colour in that ?

Ditto with 6a...Strong river in 2....ROBUST. Again, can't see any colours.

Are we sure its colours ?

He's a crafty bugger is our Araucaria, so its probably there somewhere !

po is the river inside tint - a variation of colour
Most of the other answers involving"2" are actually a clolour

[roslyn251254]

ob is the river inside rust-= the colour

[mikey4444]

You know, I had forgotten all about the river called OB.
Silly me !

Thanks Ros.
