Rog, I was not sure of the answer to this so I looked it up - and several sources did describe these two periods as blue and rose. Others mentioned blue and something else that isn't a million miles away from rose, as you stated. smile

The only two I've ever known were Blue and Rose. And my futile, cheating searches have found nothing else !!
