    Thank you for posting this nice video. I always enjoy watching Christmas Markets videos and I really appreciate your style of filming and sharing. I like how you show both the sights and vendor stalls at the market and what treats you are enjoying. Looking forward to watching more of your videos this year.

    Hi Paul,
    Great, well presented video, thanks.
    I'm from Salford, but will be going to the Markets.
    These events are expensive to set, up, hence the prices.
    There's no pockets in a shroud.
    Enjoy.

    Looking good but I would not pay £9.50 for CurryWurst that is outrageous Lidl sell it for £1.49 when they do an Alpen week so if they charged £6 there is still a very good markup on it. I suppose £6 for the lager isn't too bad in this day and age it's nice to walk around these markets but you certainly have to be selective in what you buy unless of course your wealthy youtuber.

Point is, as you seem to have gotten it twisted, is I prefer a xmas market with different food stalls not just German.. jezus how hard is it for you to get it huh?
