After Stockholm, it was time to go back to London for the chaos and excitement that was
the premiere of Mamma Mia!
But before that, I did a Beatles Walking Tour with Carl Magnus Palm around some famous
haunts in London.
While back in London this time Mark and I also visited the Tower of London, which we'd
missed out on the first time around.
On the Saturday night we went to a gathering of ABBA fans at the home of Sara Barnes and Paul Russell at Martins Heron, about an hour out
of London.
