Meet Birdsville's only cop | ABC News
It's a job like no other. Senior constable Neil McShane is a cop on the Birdsville beat in western Queensland - an area equivalent in size to the United Kingdom. But while the distances are huge the crime rate is small and most of his work involves directing lost tourists. Reporter Josh Bavas travelled to Birdsville to get a glimpse of what life is like for this country cop.

Punters in Birdsville embrace the heat at annual race meet.
IT WAS supposed to be the more civilised day on the track, but punters left nothing to the imagination as they converged to the Simpson Desert for day two of the Birdsville races.
With blokes opting for frocks, and the women stripping down to their jocks — the ‘Melbourne Cup of the Outback’ lived up to it’s reputation as Australia’s most quintessential race meeting.
Thousands started rolling in from Thursday afternoon, which sees the town swell from a residential population of 100 to more than 6000 people.
Located in the western corner of Queensland, the races meet is equally famous for its races as it is for the fashions.
With beer and champagne flowing well before the first race, the big day raises much needed funds for the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

'AUSTRALIAN BOXING TENT' - FRED BROPHY - BIRDSVILLE RACES
NEVER JOKE A BOXER!
On a trip, Dave joked about going into a Fred Brophy's Boxing Tent at Birdsville (outback Australia) and after getting up for a shot was soon committed!
Tony had to come in for support and after he was hit, and the Boxing Tent Pro 'Duke of Earl' done a push up while waiting.
Tony landed a soft hit as a joke back and wasn't taken too well!
That ended the rest of Tony's night and made for a sore trip the rest of the trip with broken ribs!
LESSON LEARNT FOR TONY!
