opening photos

[jno]

when I click on a photo in My Pictures it insists on opening in Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 (I didn't even know I had this but I assume it came with Photoshop Elements 3). I'm given the option of opening in Windows Picture Viewer, which I want (quicker and less 'noisy' to look at), but have to do it every time. Where can I change the default to Picture Viewer? I've got Windows XP.

The bin men used to tip other peoples bins into mine so they only had to take one bin to the van. I never really fill my bins right up.
I was livid cos some people don't sort and clean recyclable stuff like me. So I reported it and they don't do it any more.

Football was boring and nothing else to watch so off to bed now. Oight oight all.

noise is dying down thank goodness...bed in a minute i think.

That's so annoying .They do that round here too .I had one bin pinched by the rabble along the road and then my neighbour tried to palm me off with his maggoty bin while he got my clean one .I soon put him right though .He was most apologetic ...lol.
The wind is roaring here but the rain seems to have eased off .I stuck myself in front of the tele and watched that thing about the great train robbery and the second part of Lucan .
Oight Oight .Sleep toight .

2nd attempt!

Good morning all, hope you all survived the wind. That's one good thing about living in the 3rd, 4th and even 5th world, we do not have dustbins, we take our own rubbish to the tip and recycle it, which I like cos I can put out stuff for others to use, ie keybords and cordless phones.

I also watched The Robbers Tale and switched over to itv+1 for Lucan but it pixellated and I couldn't watch it, will try to download it today.

Mr N is agreeable that we buy a new tv.

Good morning, grey and cold here. Weather died down just before midnight so we all got a good kip. We don't have wheelies here, they give us plastic sacks and a box for bottles. There is a local tip too, but people in there manoeuvre like maniacs so I try not to go.

[Robinia]

Morning all, hope everyone's still got a roof/hairnet/wheelie bin. Very cold, bright & sunny now but they've forecast sleet for tonight :(.
Well they picked up the strewn rubbish this morning, I should think so too, and they must have noticed the brick on the top of their bin. No one can stop wild weather but if they try to find a sheltered place & flattened things first it wouldn't be so full and pushing the lid open...simples! Me & my friend over the road went mad about that combining rubbish malarkey, we polish our soup tins before we throw them away...and getting all that rust off takes some doing you know. I 'spect shaney's butler sees to that at her house :)

If anyone's stuck as what to buy me for xmas I'd like one of these please....

all is calm, all is bright here, though it may not last. Must count the bins. Neti, we just put usable stuff on the pavement outside. We had a huge bulky old TV a few weeks ago when we were redecorating, I didn't think anyone would want it as it was very pre-flat screen, but a man came along with a car in half an hour and took it away.

Well, another big year for news

[Robinia]

Haha, that's brilliant jno, I'll pass it on. News doesn't change then, I've got a very old Nottingham newspaper from 1900 and frozen to death and there's a snippet that says a dog stole some sausages from a local butcher....and we thought it only happened in cartoons.
Well I've had a play out there

[Robinia]

ooh err, the end of my post got chopped off...! never mind I need to get something done before it's dark again.

[woofgang]

lol jno, that could be my local paper!
robi those bracelets are reduced, lets gave two each!!

[woofgang]

not gave, have!!

[netibiza]

Ah jno if only we had pavements but alas we do not! Our tip is only on the road, it's big bins with side openings so good stuff is left on the top.

I have ordered the telly, but have seen another one so am dithering.

[Robinia]

Good thinking woofy, two each it is (I saw some matching eternity rings somewhere too)....and there are are always two rainbows. Well, that's what prof Brian Cox said and I believe everything he says.....

oooph, I'm boogered....Is it very wrong to clean the entire house with Dettol wipes? :) Windows are a bit smeary, I'll say it's frosting...just need to give myself a wipe down now.

[netibiza]

Postwoman very kindly left another parcel on the roof of my car!! Yes it was for me!!!

[netibiza]

Nope Robi do not like that bracelet one bit, I would like a diamond tennis bracelet though.

[shaneystar2]

Hello all
You all sound cheery .I've been shopping to Norwich .I was only going into town but as it was such a bright day I stayed on the bus . Got what I wanted ,bought some ding dinners in Marks and made my merry way back .
Lol Robinia ..the butler not only polishes the tins here he Silvos the bottoms ,that's when he's not tidying them .
Ooh I love tennis bracelets ..make that three when you order :)

[Robinia]

but I think I'd like some real bling please Santa.

That was brave shaney, was it busy?

[shaneystar2]

Funnily enough it wasn't that busy really Robinia .Mind you I was there by half ten and only went to Marks and Jarrolds and then got the bus back .It was just nice to have a ride out somewhere different. Plus it's been a lovely day here after last nights wind and rain .I feel a bit pooped now though so It'll be ding and fling ( myself onto the sofa) tonight ...lol.

[shaneystar2]

Oooh I like that bracelet .I only have one good bracelet and I hardly ever wear it really .It's gold ,left to me by MiL via the maiden aunts of Mr S.who left it to her .

[Robinia]

I've had a browse around Jarrolds, some lovely different things in there shaney.
