Metaphorically I am talking about the Globe, the world the earth as its spins on its axis . . . our Big Wheel keeps on turning says this Tina! Good morning and another beautiful day is promised to us down here in the southern hemisphere, than goodness as I am going to be outdoors most of the day. By the Way my favourite rendition of the song Proud Mary is the one out of the movie Miss Congeniality - gotta love that Tina version! Whatever you are doing - do it well! Cheers for a Great Saturday and keep the wheel turning! my photo is of the Big Wheel in Cape Town Waterfront - never again for me!

Haha we share a dislike of heights perhaps. I went on the Ferris wheel in Marseilles and was ok until we got to about 10 O'clock then freaked out. The blooming thing went around three times. I much prefer 'Terra firma'. Here is another song for you ' You spin me round'!

@Inlemay NO it is not naughty it is a song about a guy infatuated with a beautiful lady lady but my spin on this (See what I did there ) on this post is about you spinning around on the Ferris wheel! Check the words out and you will see it is not rude. Tell your daughter to pick her mind out of the gutter norty girl! as if I would be rude to such a lovely person!

It is supposed to be winter in the Southern Hemisphere, so why do you have a nice day and it is miserable weather here?

@inlemay Lovely Saturday in Belfast too. And just how does our big wheel keep spinning so perfectly and in harmony with all the other junk that spins about space such as astronaut's poo?

I hate that song for some strange reason. Maybe it's been overplayed too much.
