So I log on to pay my credit card bill (which I do every month, paying off the full amount, just to piss of the credit card company), but it won't let me access my account. Instead I get a message telling me to call customer services. Turns out someone other than me has been using my credit card details to make a fraudulent payment. Only £30, but the fraud prevention bods spotted it and put a...

Aerosmith is diebanding, or Aerosmith are continuing without Mr Tyler, or maybe nobody is leaving anything, or... who knows what's happening! {Note: This started off as a comment on Layla's Classic Rock blog. If you haven't already been to her blog, it is well worth checking out. H owever, it was a fairly long comment, so I decided that a bit of editing and a few additions would make it worth posting...

I became a Queen fan the winter before my 14th birthday; a friend let me borrow his well-worn Greatest Hits cassette, and by the time I got to song #2 — “Bohemian Rhapsody” — my life had been changed. Obsessive music freak that I was, even at age 13, I promptly set about obtaining all [...]
