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.

I have gone all flop bot again.

Morning all..I think we've got the calm before the storm here.

I really thought my bot was going to flop again last night but, apart from very little sleep, so far so good. Feel very queasy and wobbly tho, maybe I ate too much too soon.
Hope you pick up again soon neti.

Morning all
Bright and cold .I think it's going to go downhill fast though.Accu say more rain later.
Hope you're all Ok and that your flop bots soon pick up .
I had a rotten restless night too.Crampy foot ,throbbing knees .I feel like the wreck of the Hesperus this morning .
I like those boots Woofy .Very swish .

Good moaning. My we do sound in a bad way don't we. Poor shaney you must be in agony, I hate achey anything and Robi, you must take real good care, you sound most unwell. Also hope that jude's thumb is improving, she is such a rocker and roller she needs all her energy. I have gone backwards with throbbing head, and achey everything, wicked chest cough, no energy, staying in bed again today.

Hopefully woofy is feeling pucka and can strut around in her boots, and jno will be sleeping the sleep of the just.

Shall miss the Three Kings tonight, and I do enjoy seeing them. Mr N has just popped out to get 2 king cakes, one would have been ample!!

[Robinia]

what a lot we are, not a very good start to the new year is it? I'm glad I didn't go mad with xmas decorations, it'll only take me a few minutes to gather them together. Don't think I'll be standing on any steps to put them in the top cupboard today tho which means I'll probably be falling over the boxes until Easter....speaking of which, it's late this year. Good Fri is April 18th.

[netibiza]

I'm so glad I removed all the decs when I did. Only have the cards and Belen to put away, and that's no prob.

[netibiza]

Just went to the fridge to get a cool drink and Mr Tidytins has been at it, all in order and neatly piled. Oooh naughty me, I have to admit to owning a very untidy, but usually clean, fridge!

[shaneystar2]

I've pulled myself together and taken the deccies down and had a dust and polish .Whoever invented Lametta should be should be tied to a Christmas tree and pelted with it !

[netibiza]

Glitter and part poppers are the bane of my life, no matter how well and often I clean and hover, they appear months later.
Still in bed.

[Robinia]

I dragged myself up too, decorations down, quick flick round with a tickling stick and then, would you believe, I tidied my tins and packets...! Any out of date have been chucked, irrespective of whether they might still have been ok. If something's been hanging around for a year or 5 I quite clearly don't intend to use it. Finished with squirt of wd40 here and there, this damp weather sure makes things squeak.

[netibiza]

Am still in bed, heard the fireworks announcing the Kings' arrival, I enjoy seeing them, shame. I love the music and the bustle and the free sweeties they throw, I always give them to some poor child that hasn't managed to catch any (with parent's permiss first of course!)

Next year hopefully!

my Twelfth Night is tomorrow

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/religion/4126725/Christmas-ends-in-confusion-over-when-Twelfth-Night-falls.html

Or maybe next week or something, just when I get a round tuit.

[Robinia]

Yes, twelvfthth night's discussed every year and until a couple of yrs ago I always left mine until 6th January. Now I just do it when it suits, usually 4th-6th-ish. I've left the battery lights though, white on my twiddly sticks, red in the hearth...it's trendy intit? Or are fairy lights so last year dahlings? Every house except one around here have taken their lights down, it's gloomy and wild tonight.

[Robinia]

Rubbish tele tonight...I might put the red lights in the window :)

[woofgang]

I believe that everything has to be down by 12th night not on 12th night. weather awful again, nothing new here.

[netibiza]

No the Kings didn't arrive until 5th Jan although if one looks into it, it was 2 years later and September (going by where the star was).
The kids have their presents tonight cos that's when the Kings gave theirs to Jesus and tomorrow is just a family day of celebration. Oh BTW according to Pope Ratzenberger all the Kings (wise men) were Spanish. Ha ha.

[shaneystar2]

I've left the snow globe on the window sill .
It's blowing a gale here again .No ..nothing on teevee so I watched a couple of episodes of a DVD set and I think I'll go to bed .
I'm terribly thirsty today for some reason .I've drunk gallons of tea and a whole bottle of Pelligrino.
Oight Oight .

[woofgang]

lol Robi, "flop bot" means your anal glands are impacted, you'd better hope that you haven't got any as hoomans dont have them...
Hooligan night here again, am watching vid with the dogs till the noisiness passes. Its a good job sleep learning doesn't work or by now I would be reciting huge chunks of "marigold hotel"

[netibiza]

Good morning. What a shame I like the expression 'flop bot" sort of describes general listlessness, certainly not impacted anal glands.
How is everyone today. I slept well but with several several coughing fits. Must pull myself together, things to do and places to see.
