When Kuttyma was younger we used to play a game while on the road.

If you have ever taken sometime to observe the cars that pass by as you travel you will notice a drastic lack of colour. Whites, Greys, Black, Maroon, Reds and Navy Blues are the common ones. It is very rare to see cars of other colours. Taxis at times are more vivid but not personal cars.<\/p>\n

Gladstone changed it all. The cars here are vivid.
