Hi Scones and Sconelets

Feeling very pleased tonight that Leon was discovered when the X Factor was at its best It's a load of bilge now. Hating the new format. Scowell has turned it into a poor man's BGT

100% agree with you cute chick.

Leon is going to work his way back to the top of the industry and Scowell is going to look really stupid because he did not see the potential in Leon and take the time to develop it.

Wonder when Leon is going to mention Twickenham?

I expect his weekends are his own these days so maybe he will announce it tomorrow.

No idea cutechick but Leon hasn't been online for a few days so he must be doing something that is more important at the moment.

Everyone is waiting for his holiday snaps and confirmation about the Twickenham gig so I expect he will nip on with a quick blog at some point.

Yeah, he did, but he came back last Friday. He twittered to let everyone know he was back and also on Saturday to say he had been to the theatre (in London).

He got back from his holiday at the end of last week.

It's possible that Leon is working on his new official website. He has quite a bit of material now which he could put up (video and photos etc). His site would be viewable by all internet users, not just people who are signed onto Bebo and the like

Hi YL

DS has been behaving a bit strangely recently. Your post wasn't showing when I quoted B.A.C!

This is his tweet!

"went to see Hairspray today in the West End, I'm in love a wee bit with Verity Rushworth who plays Penny Pingleton!! X"

She used to play Donna Windsor in Emmerdale

I can so easily see Leon loving Hairspray. :--)

I love the original movie with Debbie Harry, Divine and Riki Lake. Just fab. Penny's mum was a total hoot.

Hey peeps, was in a local restaurant on Tuesday.....guess who came on the speakers?

Yep....our lad!!

It was 'When You Believe' and seriously, I haven't listened to that for ages...but what was amazing was how wonderfully distinctive Leon's voice was. Soooooo beautiful....

Well, just watched another audition show and was like, meh. The barmy woman and her "singing" dog were just too ridiculous.

Series 4 of The X Factor will always be my favourite. Not only proper auditions (no music & no audience), but a wee treasure with the name Leon Jackson was discovered

The same goes for me cutechick.

There will never be another Leon. It still tugs at my heartstrings when I watch the audition and the show vids. Going on this journey with him is a fantastic experience and a real privilege to watch him developing in front of our eyes. You can see the potential oozing out of him.

Lucky you! Earlier this year I was in a restaurant while I was on holiday and I heard most of his album.
