Lol yeah that'd be hard stepping out of the chopper onto paydirt and then having to come back to the mobile palace. Most (me included) wouldn't be able to understand how hard it could be.

one of my favourite paintings Bogger, "Down on His Luck". You can and feel his pain as the billy spills over.
Thanks
Mackka
No thank you Mackka ................ never knew what it was called before now :Y: But certainly does express a lot even without clearly seeing his face
 
No thanks required mate. Painted by Frederick McCubbin in 1889 showing a Gold Prospector contemplating his future after a non-successful try at the fields. This was one of a series of paintings done around that time, most of them were melancholy as these poor buggers left their families to find their fortunes only to find isolation, starvation and depression often resulting in self harm.
Thanks again for your avatar.
Regards
Mackka

All it needs is someone to cook, clean, wash, and fly the chopper! Oh and classify!

The chopper I'd be flying myself, as wouldn't give that fun to someone else ;) Reckon if I had the hard earned to buy it then the wages for the personal "valet" to handle the other chores wouldn't be a prob. :D In fact I reckon if you had one, there would be plenty of "mates" that would be happy to come along for the ride and do it for free :eek: :D :D :D :D
 
Down on his luck is now in the Western Australian Art Gallery, it measures 114.3cm X 152.5cm
These images come from a book of McCubbin's paintings
