    I say "grey" when I'm talking about the dog (greyhound).

    Aside from that I mostly use "gray."

    It's definitely GRAY

    Unless you like colours, fly on an aeroplane, crap out your arse, have a mum, have a speciality in a certain field, smoke fags, use aluminium foil, think archaeologists look for artefacts, write cheques when you buy things, have kerbs on the side of your streets, your bread grows mould, you plough a field, and/or you like to read or write a storey.

    So yea.
