opening photos
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.

hello bathers, onesie wearers and clean people and many many good wishes to the Shaneys. We had a late start here today as the wind came through again at about 5 am, the dogs were reasonably ok so long as the door was open and they could go out in it (I know...go figure) but it made for a broken night.
Today we went shopping and had hot spiced apple juice at Costas which is rather good and warming. Then we came home and had lobster, fresh asparagus and jacket potatoes for tea followed by delicious out of season cherries...tomorrow we will go and root in Tesco's dumpsters again. Now then, am I joking or serious???????
I'll tell you tomorrow....oight oight all

Morning readers...lovely sunny day and the wind has slowed considerably. I've been looking at online sales but every road leads to Jones Bootmakers and the ones that haven't been reduced...some lovely ankle boots £110 :(
Yes jno, lots of shrubs in my garden are on their starting blocks. I must see if the snowdrops are peeping through yet.
....just looked and yes, they're about an inch tall, they were hiding under dead leaves...lovely, the flowers of hope.

Mr N bought me some boots yesterday Kangaroo ones (I sincerely hope that is the name and not the leather, although they are real leather!) They were 100€ reduced to 30€ as only 2 pairs left size 37 or 39, I of course take 38, but with a thick pair of socks the size 39 fit very well and are comfortable as although they appear to be flatties they have an arch support.
I bought hija a padded jacket (should be a padded cell in my opinion!) for xmas but it was huge so we have exchanged it with without the receipt which I lost within an hour of buying the thing, but they know me so it was OK: I bought white, she exchanged it for beige as it won't show the dirt!!
My 5 month old samsung type phone won't charge just as I'd given it to hija for xmas, so took that back but they can't take it until 7th Jan as all fiestas and no deliveries, I insisted that it still be under the 6 month guaranee for the battery and yes it is.

glum phone call from jno jnr, he and gf and all her family and everyone we spent Dec 25 and 26 with has been racked with vomiting bug ever since we left. I am feeling okay, touch wood.
We went to the John Lewis sale to look at mattresses, as I have squashed mine pancake fashion over the years, and we bought a lovely new one (I hope) but as is always the way it wasn't one of the sale ones. So we will be living on dry bread and water for, oh, the next half hour at least.

hello you spendy lot. No Shaney I didn't dumpster dive for the goodies, just joking. No snowdrops yet but huge buds in my flowering almond and early cherry and of course the mimosa is full of bloom, I hope it survives the next lot of stinky weather.
I need a new mattress too...it will be dumpster diving after I have paid for that as I plan to get new carpet and have the bedroom painted at the same time. It will wait until the spring though.
Sorry to hear about all the buggy folk. Norwalk rips through families like nobody's business.
We are off to town tomorrow to bounce on beds in Ikea and generally amuse ourselves.
Oight oight all.

good morning. Oh jno a nice clean painted abode, just like Ihad this year, I am worried as I am going off the coloues in my bedroom but daren't tell Mr N, the pink is all wrong, should be pale lilac although that would be a cold colour.
Hija is out so no idea when she'll return, hopefully in time for her flight tomorrow although she has a backup flight on the 3rd.
Glad you and sis are having good time woofy.
Hope all the biddies are well and happy,

Morning people...bright, sunny but very cold wind, real feel minus 2C.
Hope you don't go down with the poorly sicky bug jno, I live in fear of that virus, I can't afford to lose any milligrams. I am, however, snufflin' and sneezin' this morning and I don't want a cold either. It might just be the atmosphere.
Well I'd better start moving some dust before new year, gone are the days when I could whizz round like a tornado on new year's eve and still have the time and energy to get glammed up and go out and party.
