Report: OZZY Was Always A Naughty Boy!

Alison Dayani of Birmingham Mail reports:

She's the woman who used to wipe Ozzy Osbourne's bottom, bathe him and be like a second mum.

And 74-year-old Margaret Edwards revealed the Brum rocker's bad boy behaviour started as a child.

Margaret, of Gorsty Croft, Great Barr, looked after Ozzy when his mother Lily went to work decades before he went on to bite the head off a bat, sniff ants and urinate on the sacred ground of the Alamo, in Texas.

But she said the "loveable rogue" was always getting into trouble even as a seven-year-old growing up in Lodge Road, Aston.

"I lived in the house opposite the Osbourne family in Lodge Road and would look after Ozzy," said Margaret. "His mother Lily was a very hard-working little lady and would always ask if Ozzy could come over and play with my little girl Lynne, but Ozzy was always getting up to something he shouldn't, even back then.

"When Ozzy was about seven, it was my daughter's birthday party and everyone had bought boxes of Maltesers. After a while, no-one could find him and we were looking around the house saying 'where's Ozzy?'

"Finally, I found him locked in the outside toilet and could hear him groaning. When he opened the door, he had chocolate all round his mouth and he'd eaten all the Maltesers, but he looked at me with his big eyes and chocolate all over him and said 'I didn't eat them'.

"He was being sick all night and I had to bath him and put him to bed. When his mother got back, she said 'That Ozzy's a little devil'. Ozzy never changed, but he would often come and sit with me and say: 'I try to be a good boy'.

"He's come a long way since I would put him in the bath with my daughter and wipe his bottom."
