    Default Riddle me this.....

    -----------------------------------------------------------
    It travels around the globe yet it remains in a corner.
    The inventer doesn't want it. The buyer doesn't need it. He who needs it doesn't know it.
    It will run but will not walk. It will not speak but has a mouth. It has a head but never weeps. It has a bed but never sleeps.
    You can see it and though it is weightless, if you put in a bucket, it will make it lighter.

    -----------------------------------------------------------

    From the slightly re worded classic riddles above, determine the answer to each and then create an image encorporating all four in a logical way.
    Please - no spoilers, just your answers as an image..

    Though the riddles do have classic answers, there will be no clear winner as it is open to interpretation, but high standards are expected as usual

    Note: You can use any graphics software you wish to create your finished work..
    Posted images should be no larger than 640 pixels width.

    Have Fun!

    I knew I should have medicated before attempting this!

    Well, I know what I'm doing, but the rest of you might think
    I'm on the same medication (or lack of it) as John.

    Excellent! You've done well.

    Norman has cleverly encorporated three into one (total of four), Bob has had a slightly different but just as valid take for one answer.
    John took a punt on his yet I can only see three answers, I'm sure 4 are there - but I'm missing one, I'm sure it'll become clear to me soon..

    Staying with the mystery for the moment, I'm looking forward to more submissions before we discuss the answers

    I claim I have four Steve but will wait for the post mortem to point them out.
