Mamma Mia!
Hate musicals, not an Abba fan. Why then did the Mama Mia! stage show, which I attended reluctantly with work friends, delight me so? Was it the sumptuous Novello Theatre on London's Aldwych? Was it the stylish bar? Was it the upbeat crowd? Whatever it was, the production was excellent.

Mona Lisa
She is a beautiful enigmatic woman; I understand why people come from everywhere to admire her. When I finally got to see her, I fainted, and not because of her magnetism. I simply got squished between two tall tourists and lost access to air. The lady needs a bigger house!

What we do in the shadows
Taika is absolutely hilarious. People seem to forget that after Thor 4. If you need a reminder, I highly recommend watching "What We Do in The Shadows". I get it, it can be a niche comedy. But when you get a chance, watch this film! Hurry up with "We'rewolves" already!
