Yes it does - thank you Chris.  When I was cribbing Andrea's code I missed
the paint section.  In the end what worked was....

    def OnPaint(self, event):                
        dc = wx.PaintDC(self)
        dc.DrawBitmap(self.bmp, 0, 0, True)
        wx.SafeYield()        
        event.Skip()

That's a relief I thought I was going mad.  The learning curve on wx.Python
is all but doing my head in.
