In Leeds we have a German market every christmas. It's still November, but they're already set up. I went with the lads from work and a potential new recruit on Thursday, to have a Glühwein, which was very nice.
Next to the Glühwein place was the inevitable German sausage stall. You could get a hot Bratwurst (inna bun) for £2, but I paid the extra 50p to get something called a Rauchzipferl, which is apparently much the same but “more spicy”. The Germans certainly know how to make a good spicy sausage.
