Aww, thanks guys I try my best to keep you all updated. I know you are all out there even if not many come on and post these days.

Leon is presenting an award at the Young Scots of the Year on Thursday ( I remember when he won his and then presented one to that young boy the year after ). Also, Parade are performing in Glasgow next Saturday so it's unlikely he will be back before next Sunday.

Hi Thms. Hope you are good?

Leon has been engrossed in songwriting again, and most recently with the guy who he did the secret gig with in early January we believe. He is putting a video up showing him at work. It will be interesting to see him at work and hopefully get to hear some snippets of new tunes too.

Parade are a new girl group on the chart scene, they have just had there 1st top ten single 3 weeks ago. Emily Biggs (as in Leons girlfriend) is one of the 5 girls in it . He seems to be very proud of her . Thats 3 years now , since x factor , hes been with her , so wont be surprised if there is an engagement on the cards.

Yeah, they seem quite open about it now. It's amazing how many people didn't realise they've been a couple all this time and been giving him (and Emily) the 3rd degree on twitter.

Sorry, just seen this comment. I didn't realise some of you might not know who Parade are, and that Emily is one of the band members.

Yes please.... and soon

Mind you I doubt that he will release a physical album. He has indicated he will be releasing all his material via the internet.
