AUSTRALIA TO HOST FIRST EVER REDHEAD PRIDE RALLY
Gingers, family and friends of gingers, and plain-old ginger enthusiasts, rejoice! Aussies are finally getting their very own Ginger Pride Rally to bask in the glory of our copper-haired friends.
Hosted by Buderim Ginger on April 16th at Federation Square in Melbourne from 10.30am, the public rally calls for all redheads to come together and for the first-time ever in Australia, to celebrate Ginger Pride.
The inaugural festival will see redheads take back their identity as they meet with fellow gingers and armed with flags and signs march for Ginger Pride, congratulating each other on quite literally sporting the rarest, most spectacular genes in the world.
Why? Because let’s face it, being a ginger at school wasn’t a walk in the park for anyone.
Buderim Ginger Marketing Manager Jacqui Price says, “It’s no secret that gingers are used to being teased for their flaming locks and freckles, experiencing unfair prejudice and misrepresentation since the dark ages. And it’s time we say ENOUGH!”
“Modelled on the highly successful Redhead Marches and related gatherings already happening in countries around the world, Australia will be the next to step up with its own Rally and finally celebrate the beauty of being a redhead.”
Hahahaaaa, good marketing ploy by Buderim Ginger!
Hubs loves a natural redhead. Reckons she has to have a GG bust!
I'm neither 
"Oh happy little ginger cats,
We stare at you with pride,
Who couldn't love your ginger coats,
On top, the middle and side?"

Does this guy look like a young redheaded Derryn Hinch to anyone else?
And why the term carrot tops? Carrot tops are green
Probbly because the tops of their heads are carrot-coloured. Make sense?
I was being a teensy bit facetious, Icy.
But thanks for the thread.
I didn't know there were over 1,000 red heads in Melbourne.
And neither did they.

There once was a weird reddish carrot,
Who really was strange and disparate,
He squawked all the day,
With nothing to say,
And make himself daft, like a parrot!
Now we have a new ginger kitten ..... 
Our lovely old moggy has been put to sleep with lymphoma which left him with a prognosis of 6 to 12 weeks unless he had chemotherapy and or radiotherapy but we couldn't do that to him at 12 years old especially given how far it had already spread.
So now we have "Wesley" from a wonderful no kill cat shelter in Tasmania, already microchipped, desexed and vaccinated .. it's sheer uproar, and our old Burmese is not amused or impressed with this bundle of energy (yet), but she's warming up to him.
He didn't have a name yet, so we decided that Wesley would suit him, after the character of Wesley Crusher on Star Trek!
Pictures later.
Welcome Wesley
Will Wheaton was a cute kid, but what happened?
So sorry about your poor old boy Tas. You did the right thing saving him from extended pain but so hard for you. all 
Anyway welcome to Wesley who will keep all of you on the go. A little ginger kitty terror, lol.
Can't wait to see the pictures.
