I've postponed this day for long enough. I've avoided watching Mamma Mia on principle, but I've been coerced into doing so tonight. So I'm about to delve into a flashy, sunny world of singing movie stars and ABBA songs. Everyone says it's good - and a drunken Aunt has managed to make me sit down with it.
