THE lure of having an early peep at Christmas can go beyond the presents under the tree.
How about a look at what's going on in other areas around the globe?
Nuremberg, dubbed the Christmas City, has a fantastic site at www.christkindles markt.de.
Gold baubles link you to a live market web camera, a kids' market, and more. Also our friends in Finland, home of Christmas spirit, have a great site at www.virtual. finland.fi.
You can see a Finnish Christmas table, plan a Finnish festive meal or party - complete with Glogg (I'm not going to tell you - check it out!) and get snow and road reports so you know Santa's travelling conditions.
