Other than meeting ABBA members, what is your dream you wish to achieve in the future? To write an avant garde-themed song for Agnetha or Frida so they can recite it, and include it for their next album/single, and film a promotional advertisement that involves Björn Ulvaeus (or a body lookalike with a CGI Björn face) cloaked in dark steampunk outfits walking within the background of Hamburg, Germany with the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra playing 'Summer Night City' ominously... Those are unrealistic dreams for me and I probably would have to hire more personnels to achieve so, but SCREW THAT. At that time when I wrote this, the thread's categorized under 'ABBA Games' so it's justified... BUT NOT NOW. 🤣 |

Just to be happy/find love, but it's ephemeral (the former) so I don't suppose it will last even if I do.
As for doing stuff... well, there are LOTS of things I'd like to do before I die.... see the Northern Lights, visit Marilyn Monroe's final resting place, see the pyramids... mostly travelling stuff. But seeing as I hate flying it's unlikely any of the above will happen.

Just to be happy/find love Yes, that. It's happened to me twice before, but I'm a bit doubtful it will happen again. But you never know. Other than that, I am trying to visit every country in the world. I'm at 105 out of 196 at the moment. |

And have you been to some of the "problematic" ones such as North Korea yet? Now I feel like an absolute loser, planning (and failing) to visit Sweden for more than a decade!  |

In all seriousness (my last post was surely unrealistic), I'd like to gain more rudiments other than paradiddles and flams, and I would want to learn unorthodox scales on my guitar and piano, while I want to read and write sheet music and getting it fixed to my mind so it doesn't look like dots and holes to me. I'd love to be a music engineer from the start and make my way to being a producer (an actual one) as well getting my house to be powered by Apple - as in, having a large collection of Apple computers and devices (if Apple gets to be a conglomerate, heck yes, house security) and using a reel to reel tape console and fiddling around with it. :-)

And have you been to some of the "problematic" ones such as North Korea yet? Now I feel like an absolute loser, planning (and failing) to visit Sweden for more than a decade! To be honest, I haven't been to any of the very difficult countries yet, although I have been to quite a few out-of-the-way places. Strangely, North Korea is not very problematic. There are several travel companies in the UK that offer package holidays there! The most difficult countries are either war zones (!) or have very onerous visa requirements. My favourite is probably the USA, which is not a very adventurous choice! You should definitely get yourself to Sweden - it's terrific (if rather expensive). And the best pop group ever have a museum there, in case you didn't know! :-) |

Mamma Mia The Party was amazing in Stockholm but the highlight was Skansen with The Visitors place.

gary, Some countries become problematic if you visit certain others beforehand. A friend of mine told me about a guy, who went to Iran one year and the following year he was in terrible trouble in Izrael because of it... they interrogated him for several hours and gave him a really hard time. As I said before, I'm toying with the idea of visiting Sweden since my secondary school days but something always got into the way - mostly health or financial problems. But it is definitely one of the dreams I want to realize, while the others are less likely to happen, most of all because I don't have time... The Rubber Ball Man, Have you been to the opening of Mamma Mia The Party or later on?
