    If you check some videos of the real thing you could see that the days are unsorted on purpose, in that way they don't need to make a calendar every year :)

    For example:

    I don't think advent calendars ever have years printed on them - you have to watch out for those kids tv/cartoon character ones as the sweets are often out of date just for this reason (experienced this last yr with ones I'd bought from heatons).

    This looks pretty cool - just wondering how my kids would react as by now they expect sweets when they open those doors ...
