    I have just laughed.........Gary Glitter has now been refused entry into Hong Kong after being turfed out of Thailand and refusing to get on a flight to the UK. He is determined not to have to come back to the UK and I reckon he thought another Far East country would let him in. Nope - good for them for not letting him slink off somewhere obscure.

    I honestly shudder when I hear one of his songs now. Sick Bastwert.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    I've seen him in concert, bizarrely. Twice.

    Many years ago, a couple who were also teachers at my ex's school were huge fans and twice when he performed in Bournemouth they went along and invited us.

    We went along just for the evening out and he was a good performer, but he is sickening.
