World affairs

If you’re heading to Australia, and have an interest in being an owl, then we have fantastic news for you.

Times are hard everywhere these days and even Australia is not as full of jobs as it used to be. But there is a job on Australia’s Gumtree pages that may go unfilled for a while.

A lady called Susan is apparently looking for somebody to watch over her while she sleeps and they have to do this while dressed as an owl or at least ‘with a feather or two stuck to your forehead’.

The full requirements of the job are below and, as you can see, Susan claims that it is not a joke ad. We remain more than a little sceptical but hoot knows. Sorry

Thanks to Alanna Everitt for sending our way.
