After continuing his work for the remainder of the day, Scrooge went back tahanan just before midnight. However, as he made his way upstairs, he was startled sa pamamagitan ng what sounded like rattling chains and a ghostly moan. He then tried locking the door and taking cover underneath the living room table, but those didn't work. "Eeebenezer Scrooge, where are you?", sinabi the ghost as it finally appeared. This turned out to be none other than his former business partner! "Ah, there ye are! I have come to tell you something important." Still shuddering, Scrooge replied, "W-w-what are you doing here? How did...

The story begins on December 24 in Victorian London. Everyone was filled with the holiday spirit as they were getting ready for tomorrow. This, unfortunately, was not the case for a grumpy and surly money-lender named Ebenezer Scrooge. He had outrightly declined his nephew Fred's (Peter Harrison) pasko hapunan invitation as well as a donation offered sa pamamagitan ng two gentlemen (Mike McCartney and Harry Harrison), who were fundraising for the poor. sa pamamagitan ng the time Scrooge returned to his office, Bob Cratchit (his underpaid employee) had just finished work and was preparing to go home. He cheerfully greeted...

"Merry Christmas, Geo! Merry Christmas, ladies!", exclaimed John as the soon-to-be family entered the recording room. George replied, "Merry pasko to you, too, me mate! I see you brought a copy of the book as a reference while waiting for us, eh?" John said, "Ye got that right! In fact, I own this as part of my collection." Laura replied, "Very cool, uncle John!" Pattie added, "I'll say! This project is sure to be just as fun as when we recorded 'Yellow Submarine'." George said, "My thoughts exactly, sweetheart!" Paul asked, "Well then, are you ready to get it started?!" Laura said, "Ready...

December 25, 1966

George and his daughter had just finished their breakfast and were getting themselves prepared to head back to Abbey Road Studios. As they wore their coats, boots, and other winter gear, Laura said, "I'm so excited to take part in the pasko message with you and my uncles for the first time, daddy George! This is gonna be a real treat." George replied, "So am I, Laura, darling! Even madami exciting is that we will be doing our veddy own version of a certain classic, audio drama style! Of course, this was John's idea, and you can thank him for it afterwards." Laura replied, "Oh, how lovely! I'll certainly be keeping that in mind." George responded with a smile and a chuckle. He then took another look at the engagement ring for a while (which he had bought at the start of this month) and gently kissed it. Before long, they drove off, fetched Pattie from her flat, and were on their way to the Studios.

The sun had begun to set around the same time the group's tour finally came to an end. They then returned to the courtyard and decided to take a break from walking for a while. George told his brother, "Y'know something, Pete? That amulet actually gave us a better understanding of each other now, since we've pretty much spent the first half of this tour being in each other's shoes." Peter replied, "You are right on the money there, Geo! It was quite a learning experience, too." George said, "Indeed!" John said, "To tuktok it all off, it made our visit to this kastilyo madami memorable than what we...

George, Laura, Pattie, John, and Peter had been enjoying their free time with the ravens while Tony told them about the origins of their association with the castle. "Legend has it that if any of these birds get Nawawala or fly away, both the Crown and the kingdom will fall. After being warned about this, King Charles II is thought to have been the first to insist that they be protected here. Today, they're known as the Guardians of the Tower." John said, "Hey, I remember pagbaba about that at school! What a fascinating story indeed." George added, "I'll say!" Peter asked, "Are there any other...

Once they were back outside, the group proceeded to the courtyard to put into action the last step of reversing the Amulet of Bandy's spell. John said, "That SURE was supernatural, me mates!" Laura replied, "Indeed, uncle John! I liked how the ghosts of those princes were friendly towards us." John replied, "Me too, dear Laura." Felix added, "And as I've sinabi earlier; this is much better than having to watch over prisoners!" "Absolutely!", remarked Laura. A few minutos later when they reached the courtyard, Felix told them to wait while he went to pluck out a feather from one of their ravens....

"Here we are!", exclaimed Felix as everyone reached the tuktok of the tower. George said, "Oooh! I must say it's a good thing we came here in the afternoon! This place seems to be dimly lit." John replied, "I concur." Laura asked, "So, Felix, can you please tell us about its ghost story?" "Your wish is my command!", he replied. "On the death of Edward IV, Edward’s young son, 12 taon old Edward became King Edward V, under the protection of his uncle, the Duke of Gloucester. Wanting to take the Crown for his own, he imprisoned Edward and his young brother Richard right in this part of the castle....

After asking for a lamp from one of his fellow Yeoman Warders, Felix led the walk to the Tower of the Two Princes. Laura said, "I'm really looking pasulong to Felix telling us about the ghost story behind this tower, daddy George!" He replied, "So am I, Laura, darling. So am I!" Pattie said, "And you and your brother will be back to your normal selves in no time, honey!" George said, "You bet, love!" John added, "Aye, me mate!" Before long, they reached the stairs leading up to the tower, and they began making their way up. As they were doing so, Peter was startled sa pamamagitan ng what sounded like walking...

When the group made it to the Armoury Room, Felix unlocked one of the drawers and took out a big book, which was a listing of further information on the Crown Jewels. After going through several chapters, he found the two pages that featured not only the amulet's backstory, but an illustration of it as well. He then explained, "This stone is known as the Amulet of Bandy (to my curious readers, bandy is used as one of the synonyms for switch. I chose that word because of having quite a nice ring to it.). It dates back to the Tudor era and has the ability to, without warning, swap the minds of...

The others were startled sa pamamagitan ng the commotion just as they had finished their tour of the room. John gasped and said, "Bless me! That sounds like Geo and Pete screaming!" Felix said, "Well, whatever it is, we better go check on them!" The girls especially became concerned. The Harrison brothers themselves had already gotten up after recovering from the amulet's zap. Pattie asked George, "Darling! Are you okay?" He replied with a jovial tone, "Yeah, sweetheart! I am. Just feeling a bit... shaken." Laura said, "Hmm... how peculiar. You don't seem to act like yourself, daddy George." John added, "And...

"Wow. I've never seen anything so marvelous when it comes to gems before!", remarked John as they toured the room where the Crown Jewels had been on display for the public to see. Pattie said, "I know! Seeing them in mga litrato really IS nothing compared to this!" Laura said, "My thoughts exactly!" Felix said, "And while the Monarchy has gone through many ups and downs, these precious stones have stood the test of time!" Among the highlights of this stop were, of course, the Imperial State and St. Edward's (which has only been used for coronations) Crowns. There were also swords, scepters, and...

Now that they were inside the castle, the group proceeded to meet with their tour guide. "Daddy George, do you think we might hear some interesting ghost stories, too?", asked Laura. Her father replied, "Maybe so, Laura, darling. Let us see." At that moment, they suddenly heard a loud "BOO!!", which was then followed sa pamamagitan ng a hearty laugh. This eventually turned out to be none other than one of the Yeoman Warders. He said, "I'm sure you weren't expecting to be greeted like that, eh? Anyways, welcome to the Tower of London! My name is Felix, and I'll be your guide for this special Halloween tour."...

October 31, 1966

It's that time of taon once again when chills and thrills abound. George, Peter (who had come for a visit), John, Pattie, and Laura were on their way to quite possibly the most haunted landmark of the city (in terms of its history, that is), where they will be having a special tour with one of the Yeoman Warders as their guide. As they drove through the Tower Bridge, Peter told his brother, "Thanks again for inviting me over to this tour, George! I couldn't ask for a madami fitting way to celebrate Halloween." George replied, "It was my great pleasure, Pete! And since I've conquered...

Shortly after parting ways with the other Beatles and the reyna as they returned to their Flats and Buckingham Palace respectively, George, Pattie, and Laura decided to spend a romantic evening at the small park just across Big Ben. There, they strolled under the silvery full moon while the couple held each other's hands before relaxing on a bench. Laura said, "This sure has been a day, daddy George! Not only did Pattie and I participate in the recording of your new song, but we got to spend some time with Her Majesty as well!" George replied, "You're telling me, Laura, darling! It doesn't...

About an oras later when they had finished eating, everyone made their way back to the recording room. As for Sparkie and the other Corgis? Well, thankfully, they were aware of their boundaries and rejoined their human owners at just the right time. John told the Queen, "So this new song of ours is called 'Yellow Submarine', and you'll be the very first to hear its finished glory. Enjoy!" She nodded and gave him a thumbs up. With that, the song was played and had them smiling all the way until it ended. Elizabeth remarked, "Wow. I'll say that was quite a fun song, boys! You even made it feel...

While chowing down on their pizza and chicken wings (along with drinking some Ribena blackcurrant juice), the Beatles, Laura, and Pattie told the reyna madami about their trip to Ireland, which included the places they visited and how the free concerts went. Then, afterwards, she told George's bandmates about successfully taking down Sinister Gates and his goons as part of a mission to save Lucky from the former's clutches. The Corgi himself still wouldn't leave Laura's side and lovingly rested his paws on her lap. Ringo remarked, "Woah! I'm glad none of you got hurt sa pamamagitan ng that bloody nincompoop."...

"Woo! That was a bloody blast, me mates!", exclaimed John sa pamamagitan ng the time everyone finished their little dance. Paul replied, "I could not agree more! This song is sure to be a lovely addition to our new album." Ringo remarked, "You're telling me! The fans are absolutely gonna pag-ibig it!" Sparkie made a noise that sounded like he was saying, "Correct-a-mundo!" Laura said, "I knew we'd have so much fun, daddy George!" Pattie added, "Indeed! And thanks again for allowing us to sumali along, honey." George smiled and replied, "Anytime, me darling girls! Hearing those from the both of you makes us happier...

As Ringo took helm of the lead vocals, he opened the song and was shortly followed sa pamamagitan ng the sound effect of ocean waves in the background.

In the town where I was born
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines
So we sailed on to the sun
'Till we found a sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine


John, Paul, and George joined along for the first chorus.

We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine


The scene was then turned into something reminiscent of...

The trio reached Abbey Road Studios about twenty minutos later, and they went inside after George parked his car at its usual spot. Pattie remarked, "Wow. You've certainly got a lovely place to record your songs, darling!" George replied, "Yes, indeed, my love! In addition, we recorded our pasko messages for 1963 and 1964 right here. Laura even shared her thoughts with us on the latter!" She nodded in agreement. Pattie said, "That is simply wonderful!" George smiled. As they made it to the recording room, John, Paul, and Ringo had already finished preparing themselves for the session. Laura...
