Christmas in August?
A friend told us this morning that she visited the REAL store in Käfertal, a suburb of Mannheim yesterday (28 August 2012) and was horrified to see Christmas cakes - Stollen, Dominosteine on sale. It does seem much too early for us. It would appear that in Austria that the law is such that no Christmas confectionery may be sold before 1 November. This strikes us also as being too early, but better than starting in August.
