      I do, although a friend of mine said that I shouldn’t call her “ginger”. She actually went down to B&Q a while back and compared her hair to their colour chart. Apparently her hair isn’t “ginger” or “red”, its “Fandango marmalade”.

      I really do, actually, and I find it funny that being “ginger” makes one the butt of jokes in the UK. In the states, where I grew up, we just think of hair color as being brown, blonde or “red” (I never heard ginger used to describe hair color til I got here). So there’s a cultural thing going here which I totally don’t understand.

      I like (in no particular order): ginger hair, ginger biscuits, ginger tea and ginger cake.
