All Aboard !!

That was the invitation from Ozzy in 1980 at the start of Crazy Train. Well, he doesn't need no damn Crazy Train anymore because he turns 65 today so can get a bus pass.

This is his star on the Walk of Stars, Broad Street, Birmingham. He was awarded it around 2007 in recognition of his contribution to heavy metal and the Brummie accent. Probably.

I've left the shot wide because the white building you can just make out in the background is the NIA where Black Sabbath will play this Christmas - just about as close to Ozzy's back yard as it's possible to get.
