cerealjoeI have trouble spelling the word "colour" as "color". I'm editing the work wiki project and there you have to use "color" and it feels dirty to me. Really, really, really dirty. I guess it's the same with favourite, my fingers are used to typing it with the "u". I also spell "realise" and all those words with an "s" instead of a "z" but it feels less wrong for some reason.
I also say it "zed" rather than "zee". It's strange though because I first learned all those words the other way around, I learned my ABC with "zee". I guess that's what you get for having to work with articles and papers which require UK spelling.
Yet I say "potato" as an American would say it, and "tomato". Although, I do say "tomato" the British way sometimes.
