Australia is offering to pay a caretaker to lounge in a tropical island
paradise for 6 months:

Every time I click on the link to apply I get a page error, I'd guess
they got so much traffic the server got taken down. Maybe in a few days.

Pumpy,

You're welcome to the job. Personally I'd miss the rain; I like rain. Am I odd?

Don't bother answering that! :?

There is rain in the tropics, quite a lot actually. Depending on where you are it comes pouring down in only a short period of the year instead of all through the year. So you have no excuse to not join the over 20.000 applicants ;)

(how on earth are they going to go through 20.000+ video applications?!)
