Fed Up With Snow Already? Warm Up Your Desktop With Holiday Lights

I’m not sure what the weather’s like in your neighbourhood, but for the first time I can remember in many years, here in the UK we’ve just had a deluge of November snow, and apparently there’s more to come!

So, what better time to warm up your desktop with the new Windows 7 Holiday Lights desktop theme? 17 new desktop wallpapers each featuring a wintry theme are on offer, with “sparkling images of holiday celebration and winter wonder” according to the website.

My personal favourite is the snowy river scene, shot deep in a forest. It looks like the coldest place on earth, apart from the glow from a sole fir tree, fully illuminated and bathing the adjacent river with light.

I don’t know who had the impossible job of wiring that tree up, but next weekend, when I’m nailing up our own lights in the garden, I won’t feel so bad!
