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.

and a raspberry roulade and some very nice looking nutty flavoured ice creams. Can't wait.

Neti, behave yourself!

Morning all..well puta says 08.32, it often pings back 8 hrs. I certainly don't want the day all over again, I'm soooo tired, I hardly slept last night... there were lots of cars going by until about 4am but they don't wake me, unless they stop and slam doors, I quite like to hear life moving about....it was just one of those restless nights and I kept fancying a ginger biscuit for some reason so I've bought some today.
I've done all I need to do now. Sis came and we went to Sainsburys. Needless to say it was very busy and I'd been dreading it but it seemed very calm somehow, everyone was moving along and all the tills were open so no frayed nerves. The heavens opened as we left and we were stuck in the foyer for about 15 mins....not very seasonal, tut.
Shaney I swear they purposely put short dates on at xmas, my friend shops in Sains all the time and she says the same. With such a huge turnover they can't say it's because they're not selling stuff.


What day is it?

I've got ads for rainbow sapphires following me :)

Lol Robinia .I nearly shot one of the trays of pots of cream all over the floor as I fumbled at the back of the shelf .They were all rolling about and I had to hurriedly stack 'em up again :)
At least nobody asked me to reach anything from top shelves today ,they were all to busy checking the dates on things .It's bad stock control really .But I suppose they think people will buy it anyway just so they have it in .I got a Christmas trifle marked down to half price to be eaten by 25th (which it will be ) and there were loads on the shelf with same date all reduced .

robi don't forget there's a corrie tonight at 7pm

[netibiza]

we used to have an "out of date" shop here and it was wonderful, I am not a great believer in dates. · easter eggs for 100 pts in June!! Bargain. and 3 pot noodles for 100 pts.

[netibiza]

we, alas have no sprouts for xmas as yet, they are not a common thing here at this time, I will go on a sprout scout tomorrow, Mr N loves them, I hate them but have to have one with the xmas dinner.

[shaneystar2]

Hi all lovely Sunday visiting sister WLFTD and nieces. Did go to Sainsburys and went in in a downpour past lots of people waiting in the foyer. Didn't spot you Robi. I thought it was really good no mad queues and I always go around with a smile on my face anyway and people are nice to me because they think I'm a bit mad or smile back and chat! Served myself and had left my bags in my car. Luckily it had stopped scything (sp) down and I packed my bags in the car park.
I also had to buy a new iron so I'm going to 'study' it now. Going to listen to music all night. Top of the Pops and The Choir on BBC 2.
Have a good night Biddyfriends everywhere. See yer later 'gaters.

Harry freakin Potter, grrrr. Is this all it's going to be every high day and holiday until I shuffle off this planet? Yes neti, I saw corrie was on, not very good though. I watched Lady Gaga with the Muppets earlier, I prefer that to all this choir stuff, lol, some of them are awful. I really only like all male choirs.

[shaneystar2]

Dire teevee Robinia .There was nothing on last night and nothing tonight .
Not for me anyway .I've watched all my catch up programmes .So I'm going to haunt the corridors of AB instead ...hahaaa.
Harry Potter gives my rear end an earache .I know lots of people love it but I can't see why ..lol.
Mr S has fallen asleep in the front room so I'll let sleeping dogs lie :)

[Robinia]

I've been on YouTube, listening to Kings college choir singing carols, lovely. I've bumped up the heating and I'm almost in a stupor, haha.

[netibiza]

Snap Robi I was on YouTube listening to 50 top xmas songs. Absolutely nada on tv. Mr N turfed me out of bedroom as he wants to sleep vos has to be up early. Waiting til 11.30 to see Sex, lies and whatever about Keeler and all.

oh dear, another mega storm coming tomorrow. I hope Santa's okay up there.

[woofgang]

oight oight sprout scouts.

[netibiza]

Morning all. Mr N has gone to work somewhere, I am still in bed with a cuppa althouogh have got the bathroom towels etc in the wash. Hope the weather stays nice so I can get everything dry.

[netibiza]

Sprouts, sprouts, wherever you are, I'm coming to get you!

[jno]

it's not going to be drying weather here, we are all doomed. Went to have lunch with a friend in leafy St John's Wood yesterday, and there's an enormous oak stump out front of her home - it was blown onto the house in the last storm. Fortunately there was scaffolding around the house that broke the fall so no great damage.

There's an unnecessarily high plane tree over the fence at the end of our garden, I wonder if the storm could be persuaded to knock it down?

[jno]

I see one of the weekend papers recommends Lidl Deluxe Cream liqueur, which I presume is their own-brand Bailey's only about a third of the price, £6.99 I think it was.

Not that anyone here would spend Christmas sipping nice Lidl liqueurs, of course.

[jno]

... they've all had their power cut off in the storm, obviously ...

[netibiza]

Yay sprout scout was successful, I found some in a little local shop, none of the big supermarkets had any! Well pleased. Nice dry day so am getting the bedding and bethroom things dried. Have trimmed and coloured my hair, will go to hairdressers at a later date but she cuts it so short and I like it as it is, full on top and short to the ears no not like friar tuck!
