The colour of Syd's eyes.

Post by Bea Day »

I am only posting this once, and I know there has been a lot of debate regarding this subject. I was at a party tonight and was chatting nonsense with Libby Gausden, his first girlfriend. She initially said they were brown but went over to Rosemary Breen, his sister and asked....and Rosemary answered " They were brown with bits of green". So that puts the end to that debate. Feel free to spread the word, I am a first hand witness to his sister saying this to his first girlfriend.

Roger Keith Barrett's eyes were brown with bits of green. And that's it. End of any speculations.

Black holes or brown or brown with bits of green in them, they are beautiful looking eye balls.

Nah, it's just that people have been chatting and discussing this so much, I thought I'd post the "true gospel" and end all discussion and put people's minds at rest... :wink: :lol:

Thank you very much. This is the question I've been wanting the answer to ever since I first heard Interstellar Overdrive.

They're probably a sort of dust colour by now.

I never really thought about his or any of the other Floyd's eye colour, but must say Bea Day is a funny username, given that it makes me think of an obscure porcelin water contraption. :lol:

Dust coloured eyes? I don't want to be reminded of Syd's death.
