Whilst in Norway - don't forget to pay your respects to Otto in Trondheim and admire the rapidly shrinking ant population of Narvik.

1 train a day out of Narvik, and we missed it!

Must have loved the ants too much.

Though I'm curious about the Oslo comment. Are there really special ABBA sections in the music stores? I don't remember that from when I was there (and I probably looked). They didn't put out *that* many records, surely...
In the two music shops that I went in, there were defined sections where all the ABBA stuff was - maybe that's not a general trend (I was surprised as they're not even Norwegian (well, apart from Frida!)) but just in those two shops, I don't know. No, they didn't put out that many records, 8 albums I think and some odds and sods, both old and recent.
