    Just whipped out a "Tropical Blue" suite from the en suite, next is the champagne / Peach shell monstrosity in the main bathroom.

    Never thought of eBAY someone will want it.

    I have an avocado one downstairs and a chocolate brown one upstairs (1972 house). This is just meanness though, I have largely given up on the idea of fashions coming back, I kept my 1969 purple suit with huge flairs and wide lapels for over 30 years hoping but it never happened. I have probably had to buy two new suits while I was waiting. With things not subject to fashion, like underpants, you can get a good forty years wear out of them.

    PS Chocolate brown is at least practical for a lavatory. Go at least 5 years between cleans.

    Ah, but how do you it's not really green?

    Good excuse for pissing on the floor if you're colour blind. Or is it red they can't see? Don't know, not colour blind, I certainly see red quite often these days though.

    I predict they'll make a comeback. Grab it while you can.

    started a topic Avocado bathroom suite...

    Avocado bathroom suite...

    Should anyone require one of these to relive the 1970s, there's one being stripped out of a house across the road...

    Best of all, of course, it's green...

    Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....

    Green.
