Witch Wanted - Must Be Able To Cackle!

UK tourist attraction Wookey Hole, a theme park built around a large hole in the ground, is advertising for a live-in witch. The job also requires that the person taking it teach witchcraft and magic to the tourists, cackle, and not be allergic to cats. You are also expected to provide your own "magical accoutrements", though no mention is made on whether you can claim back the broom as a travel expense. Because of anti-discrimination laws in Britain, both women and men can apply for the position, which pays £50k ($80k) pro-rata (BBC News).

I am so hoping someone will misread the advert and turn up dressed as Chewbacca.

Hey, Han didn't call him "Chewey" for nothing you know! 😉

Luke: "Oh no, there are 'tight-fighters' blocking my way, I'll never squeeze through!"
Ghostly Ben Voice: "Use more force, Luke!"
*<laser zaps>*
Han: "Yeehah! You're all clear kid! Now blow that 'exhaust port' and let's get out of here!"

It sounds like a Wookie strip joint, or I guess erotic dancing joint since they're so hairy.
