ROYGBIV

Richard of Leicester Gave Battle in Vain 

This is the lifelong pneumonic handed down to me by one of my Primary School Teachers some 45 years ago, and was used to remember the Colours of the Rainbow. Which we now know to be RED ORANGE LIME GREEN BLUE INDIGO VIOLET.  There was a YELLOW in there somewhere, but some fool thinks that Richard is from Leicester and not York so to help future generations I have had to transpose the true YELLOW contained in a Rainbow into the so far unknown rainbow colour of LIME. 

It's so confusing when people mess with the truth.  Millions of people know where King Richard was from. So can we please bury him where he and his then family would have wanted him buried and not put him on show where he was found? 

Richard of York (yes folks it is York) gave battle in vain.
