RIP OZZY OSBOURNE

We watched "No Escape From Now" on Paramount+ yesterday. It covers Ozzy's final years very well, particularly the barriers that he overcame to perform at Perry Barr and Villa Park. As has been said by 1299 regarding his book, somehow it is both terribly sad, as well as so very funny in places. Well worth a watch, if you happen to have access to Paramount+.

I've been watching bits of "I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here" and Ozzy's son Jack comes over as a chip off the old block, as well as a credit to his parents. At one point, he said about doing it “I know my dad would be like, ‘go and f*****g do it! (Not) moping and being sad that I’m not here.’ He’d be like ‘try and have some fun." I bet Ozzy would have been really laughing at some of the things that Jack has been up to in the jungle. ;)

It's great that Ozzy's family is maintaining their contact with the city and that the city continues to honour Ozzy for what he had done to demonstrate his strong link to Brum.
