The Bet (part 2)

So since writing my last blog about my new bet, it seems that pretty much everyone wants to try and have as many ginger children as possible. Which is a big slap in the face to Katie Hopkins a "celebrity" that Helen Bradley told me to google after my last post. Katie Hopkins is a horrible snobbish woman who once tweeted

'Ginger babies. Like a baby. Just so much harder to love'

If that's the case why do so many people want to take part in the who can have the most ginger babies by 2028 bet?

Here are all the people who after reading my last blog want in:

 In the already parents category there's my mum (Sue) who has 2 of of 3 ginger children, and likes to boast that she is winning already. I guess technically she is but  if me or Jo (pictured below) go grey or die or dye by 2028 then she's not got much of a chance. She has set the bar high though if you're only planning on having two children I wouldn't bother entering into the ginger bet. p.s She's entering with my Dad obviously.

 Next in the parent category is Steph and Nick and Baby Benedict, although neither Steph or Nick are ginger, Ben (our godson) is looking more ginger every time I see him, and they're planning on having 4 children so in with a very good chance.

So in the couples category there's us and Katie and Mike as stated in the previous blog. 

And then in the singles category there is:

 Joe Fred....who has a ginger mum.

 Hazel Jurd who also has a ginger mum.

Helen Bradley...not a ginger but a massive fancier of ginger men.

Lydia Palmer and Danni McGuinness Both gingers in their own right.

The advantage of being single at this stage in the competition is that you can choose a partner who's going to give you most chance of winning. I was thinking after we've finished this bet in 2028 maybe we could go for most ginger grandchildren in 2058 say? Me and Helen already have vague plans to share a grandchild anyway. (we did try to become sisters in law but it would have meant at least one of us marring someone we didn't love) so if she has a couple of ginger kids this would be a double bonus for me. 

The small print:

• To answer Rachel's question only biological children count. 
• The ginger must be natural, however if you are a natural ginger and you dye your hair anther colour you are a traitor to the race and are permanently disqualified as an individual.
• winner is the couple with the most ginger children on 1st January 2028.
• Entrants are all those photographed above plus their future partners and children.
• The competition is now closed no one else can enter but other people can take bets on who will win.
• Losers which are defined as anyone photographed above and their families excluding the one winning family.
• If there are two winners with equal amounts of ginger children a gingerness scale will be drawn (sort of like litmus paper but with shades of ginger)
• All losing families must dye their whole families hair ginger.
