Did you download it through overdrive, or did you download it through one click digital?

If it is overdrive, all you need to do is get the overdrive app from the google / android store. You'll need an adobe ID as well, but it's easy once you've set it up.

Don't know about One Click Digital, but I can find out.

It is definitely overdrive. Thanks tomterm.

I like the colour too.

In fact.....if you need somewhere to store it longer term........;).

Actually,its the same colour as my kitchen table I think, and the Boss's study walls! But Much prettier.



If you are thinking about things long time then its a good sign. .


Edit: I'd love to see proper beeswax candles on it too. Much more flattering. I think that's a nice but indeed.

Thanks everyone I did try to post the pic whilst I was deliberating so you could talk me into it, but didn't have much battery left on my phone and needed to use it to be polite and check it could be stored/ was having problems posting a link to the pic.

Yes, it wasn't a completely impulse purchase, I'd already fallen for that style of table when I saw the other one...a
It is a very pretty colour. And thepedestal is quite ornate (pretty sure it's meant to be like that rather than woodworm...). Might end up r reconsidering the colour scheme of my dining room now!

The overdrive app doesn't like wma, I have adobe digital addition on the PC which does the epub format for books but doesn't want to know about wma and windows media player is no better.

Is the file protected? If not, try the Rocket Music Player.

Edit: If it is protected, I-have-not-done-this-myself but in theory you could convert it to MP3 using freely available software available, for example, http://titankeysoftware.com/drm/overdrive_wma_to_mp3.html which may not be quite as legal as an upstanding citizen like myself would perhaps condone.

Fab! Something to put your chips down on!

Get a set of three plastic squeezy bottles for mustard/brown/red sauce and it'll look a treat



If I can do a PN moment here .... where are you going to get a tablecloth that fits?
:P

That's terrible. I thought they had automatic systems to deal with fire.

:cool:


Those colours are really adaptable. I'd use green or grey instead of white or cream as a neutral. Um, in fact I do, I have a grey blanket box in the cheese room and the fire ace in the study is still dark grey (though that IS going, we just haven't agreed yet in which manner it goeth.......)



What colours were you hoping for, can they be worked with that table and have that as an eclectic colour accent?

I do like it. If it were mine I'd be wanting spiderweb back chairs with it, because I love them (i desperately want some here but i just don mt think i can make it make sense or even happy nonsense) or ghost chairs so as not to clutter up view.
