I heard that the live stream was cut short and didn't show us congratulating Ozzy at the end of our set. So this was from a fan.......

Goodbye dear friend - thanks for all those years - we had some great fun. 4 kids from Aston- who’d have thought, eh? So glad we got to do it one last time, back in Aston. Love you.
