Wow, they have sinterklaas in Austria? I've always heard it was a
Dutch/North-Belgium/Extreme-Western-Germany habit.

Sure it wasn't from thereabouts?

And Jasper, you are right, Sinterklaas is unknown around here. They do have
'Santa Claus' and 'Krampus' (~Zwarte Piet), but it looks they will lose
against the 'Weihnachtsmann' (=USA-SantaClaus)...  8-(

Happening here (ie, .nl itself) as well.

Though actually, this year there was very little sinterklaas
decoration in the shops, but the santa claus junk was even less this
year (which is a reversal of trends). My guess is that retailers are
just completely ferd up with one very major and two major holidays in
a month.
