Morning Ken, your spot on, if you look closely you can see the similarity in the young and old Barry.

Who's up next.

PS: don't think I need to add any biographical info, everybody knew who he was.smile

She was an Australian writer, known for her socialist views.

Here's an image most of us should be familiar with.

That's her Sheba.

Her image, the one in my last post is on our $10 note.

Dame Mary Jean Gilmore DBE (née Cameron; 16 August 1865  3 December 1962) was an Australian writer and journalist known for her prolific contributions to Australian literature and the broader national discourse. She wrote both prose and poetry.

Gilmore was born in rural New South Wales, and spent her childhood in and around the Riverina, living both in small bush settlements and in larger country towns like Wagga Wagga. Gilmore qualified as a schoolteacher at the age of 16, and after a period in the country was posted to Sydney. She involved herself with the burgeoning labour movement, and she also became a devotee of the utopian socialism views of William Lane. In 1893, Gilmore and 200 others followed Lane to Paraguay, where they formed the New Australia Colony. She started a family there, but the colony did not live up to expectations and they returned to Australia in 1902.

Sorry to hear you have "problems" Sheba, hope you work things out soon.

I will sit on the side to give someone else a chance to post, think you've all heard/seen enough of me.smile

Shouldn't be too hard.
