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.

Morning all
Drizzly and mild here .Some of your warm air is coming our way Neti but it's not bringing sunshine just rain .
Hope you're all ok today .
I watched Doc Martin too .I hope there's another series .

[Robinia]

Morning all... haha, love the google doodle today, you land in a different place each time

I love Martin Clunes but I soon got fed up of Doc Martin I'm afraid, it was just a bit too daft for me and I couldn't stand that silly teacher girlfiend/wife? of his. Are they still together? I was surprised that they kept it on and ditched Kingdom with Stephen Fry. That was a bit farcical as well but I thought it was funnier and better acted.

♫ It's raining again ♫ ....no, not because of my singing.
Actually it's stopped.... for now.

wasn't sure if you were supposed to be doing something with the doodle - there were the arrows, and you could zap clouds, but I couldn't see anything else going on.

[Robinia]

jno when you rise up level with the keys you can use your own arrow keys to tip the basket left or right....I just landed in the sea, ha (as if I haven't been wet enough recently)

[Robinia]

...now I'm on a yacht, I think I'd better stay on it.

[shaneystar2]

That Google Doodle is making me feel seasick !
Oh yes they're still together Robinia ,married with a baby .I like the baby and the dog ..lol.I It's several babies actually and they don't always get them in sync It is a bit daft but it's something to watch while I knit one ,drop one .
I loved Kingdom ,it was a shame they axed it .
It's got out quite nice here now ,bit sunny and it's very mild indeed for October .

and I'm just on the tip of the pier.

[Robinia]

Lawd knows I'm not averse to watching daft stuff, lol, it depends whether I like the characters or not....I'm watching old cagney & lacey episodes at the moment, (BBC2 4-5pm) I love it, it used to be one of my favourites. Oh for the days when crime was erm.... cheesey :)

I've got to sew up baby moondust's hat and boots this afternoon, I was waiting for him to have a fitting before I finished them. He's absolutely fascinated by things on his feet, haha, it's so funny.

aims to knock jno off the pier

I thought that Kingdom was brilliant, cannot understand why it got axed, but I do enjoy Doc Martin, have given up on Downton since the rape.

[netibiza]

What is the point of the doodle, I just pressed right arrow and I landed on the quayside and then again on a raft thingy, I wanted to crash into the sea??

Just doing my roots, and dyeing some towels green which are in good nick but faded.

Hija has been to 2 interviews and been offered two jobs, she is considering the options. She hates her iphone (as did I hate mine) and is selling it! Android rules at least in out house!!

[netibiza]

id anyone notice the doc's mother reading "50 shades"?

He is a bit over the top miserable, I mean so is Mr N but nothing like that to the point of rudeness. Yes Robi I am also confused asto the wife, seems seems extremely dippy to me, no way headmistress amterial.

[woofgang]

The other axed program I enjoyed was Eternal Law, cannot get why it wasn't continued.

always useful to have senior assistance in bringing up babies, of course

[Robinia]

lol jno, there were days with mine when I'd have loved assistance, senior or otherwise.

Dyeing towels eh?
waiting for the day neti runs in after her shower looking like the incredible hulks angrier sister

[netibiza]

I fear I am becoming dyslexic!!

[netibiza]

Washing machine plahying up, I think I will be getting stripey towels!

[netibiza]

Not stripey, more abstract grrr.

[woofgang]

Oh dear. I am planning to dye some three piece covers later this year....actually i won't mind if they do come out a bit abstract...
We are dosed (two of us) and waiting for the storm to come over. I have just checked the met office site and it may miss us, fingers crossed.

[netibiza]

but mine are more random than abstract. I am not best pleased, I did it exactly as it said on the packet, wished I hadn't bothered. Normally, I wait until the machine is going and then I add the dye mixed with hot water through the soap dispenser draw. Then they are not patchy, this time they just sat there for about 15mins with my added hot water, the powdered dye in the drum and nothing happening, ergo there are darker dyed places with the drum impression.

woofgang, though this is recent weather you can see where the next lot's coming from
