Britain’s redheaded Prince Harry has been invited to join hundreds of fellow ginger nuts in Cork next week at a fun-filled festival.

A flame-haired Kiwi whose community fundraised for her airfare to attend Ireland’s biggest festival of foxiness has set her sights on the ‘Queen of the Redheads’ title.

Red will be in fashion next month as the fifth Redhead Convention welcomes people from all over the world to Crosshaven in Co Cork.

Up to 2,000 redheads are expected to descend on the Co Cork village of Crosshaven this weekend for the Irish Redhead Convention.

IN June, 2007, then 41-year-old Sarah Primmer, from Plymouth, in England, was awarded £18,000 in compensation for having been bullied at work. The former kebab shop employee had been taunted about her red hair and its perceived, inherent sexual characteristics.

Redheads have set their sights on smashing a biscuit-baking world record to prove they’re ginger nuts.

A gingerbread man party, freckle counting, and an Olympics-themed carrot-tossing competition were the big crowd-pullers over the weekend at Ireland’s annual Red Head convention.

TAOISEACH Enda Kenny declined an invitation to a red head convention in Crosshaven, Co Cork, over the weekend due to a prior commitment, but that didn’t stop 500 people with ginger locks from partying to raise funds for cancer research.

THE Taoiseach has turned down an invitation to join in a gathering of foxy fun for red-heads next weekend.

PROUD redheads are set to paint a seaside town red at a special convention celebrating ginger locks next week.
