Unfortunately, they do not sell Pain du Campagne in the freezer case.
I'm in the process of baking 80 loaves of bread for this weekend and
with two batches baked, one batch on the second rise, two batches on the
first rise and five batches of Panettone scheduled for tomorrow, I could
appreciate the short-cut.

I was just curious about why 17 loaves of fresh bread presented any
particular problem.  I view it as an evening's baking.
