That's awful news, after seeing his recent farewell appearance at Birmingham I really didn't think that would be the last time he would be seen in public and his end was so close. Yes, crazy but endearing...

RIP Ozzy.

One of rock's greatest ever performers. A crazy (and funny) guy who I saw perform a couple of times and so pleased that he eventually managed to play his farewell gig a couple of weeks ago. Something he always wanted to do.
RIP you crazy man, you will be sadly missed by anyone who likes rock music and many many more.

Well, this is appropriate for several threads such as the unhappy thread/what are you listening to now, but thought it needs something special. I have just heard that Ozzy Osborne has died.

One of the most influential characters in hard rock and heavy metal history has left the stage for the final time, I am soo gutted but knowing how much he has been suffering, at least he is now at peace.

For anyone who got to see the farewell concert a couple of weeks ago, it sounds like it raised more money for charity than any other concert in history.

My thoughts, obviously go out to his family, personal ones and the wider metal fanbase.

Best wishes to you all

Simon

ROCK ON MATE!!!

I can always recommend the bookshop at the Great Western Society's depot at Didcot. On several occasions have obtained books that I hadn't seen elsewhere.   

Good grief! That's fantastic.

A Japanese modeller made LMS 6201 Princess Elizabeth.
Rather than makesng Bhe's kit, hit modified old Farish's Coronation.

I had thought of that Alex, but about 6 years outside my period. I could justify bone on  a through service though.....food for thought!

Don't forget Dave, that some were drafted onto southern metals while the crank axle problems of the spam cans was being sorted

A sign of a serious - hopefully now fixed - issue with the models given the delays?

Not a complaint - I'd rather wait for something perfect, although close to £200 is steep, but the new norm 

I think I'll need to see this one in the flesh before I commit. But I hope it's successful for Bachmann.
