MAMMA MIA! has been delighting fans for a decade and it is a favorite of Mr. snow (and myself). We first saw it while in London in 2000; it is absolutely wonderful and an uber boudica pick!
As if you aren't busy enough while you are in London, the King Tut And The Golden Age Of The Pharaohs exhibit is back in town. After 35 years, a new and expanded showing of the King Tut collection of objects will be at the O2 Dome until August 31, 2008. If you haven't seen this magnificent display of Egyptian treasures, you really must visit. Discovered in 1922 by British Archaeologist, Howard Carter, the tomb is the only one of its era to be found intact and full of indescribable riches. King Tutankhamun is the most popular and famous of the Egyptian pharaohs and the legend of a mysterious curse still stirs the imagination.

Remember, tell them slightlynorthofworth sent you.

Until next time...
