Thanks to Stephanie for the links.
Gina sent in a few links and I'm only getting around to posting them now. Consider them a Christmas present.
A bit of an update about Slow Moving Millie, that's Amelia for those that didn't know.
She's signed to Island records and has an album of 80s covers coming out next month called Renditions.
The first single is the Smith's "Please Please Please", available to download from tomorrow. It will also be used for the John Lewis Christmas ad which premieres during "X Factor" on Saturday.
The first radio play is tomorrow morning (11/11/11) during Fearne Cotton's Radio 1 show. You Tube and Facebook are doing a sneak preview of ad from tomorrow and the video of the single goes online tomorrow too.
So now you know. Go and buy!

Imen has a french blog on Amelia. You can check it out at amelia-warner.skyrock.com.
Imen also kindly sent in the following Amelia pics taken by Tania Nyberg. They are new to me. And I like one enough to use it for a new logo image.
Amelia wrote and performed the song for this Virgin Media commercial that is currently being shown on UK TV. The song will be available on iTunes from 18th August.
Ah, Summer! Another washout! As I type this I can hear the constant sound of rain.
I've given the look of the site another "tweak" and done some work with the stylesheet and the older pages. I'll need to fix up the image gallery next. If I'm missing any images you have of Amelia please send them in and you'll get the credit.
I've been meaning to organise an email Q&A with Amelia. If you have any questions you want to ask her send them in and I'll put them on the list. If I get enough questions I'll send them off for her answers.
Big thanks to Steph for getting in touch with some new trailers for The Echo:
I've just seen the new Korean trailer for "The Echo". It's pretty scary and has got more of Amelia in it :) Here's the official Korean website (with the trailer and photos): www.echo2009.co.kr
Dread Central's also updated their website with the Korean trailer so we can compare the two trailers: www.dreadcentral.com
The Echo has a Korean release date of 28 May 2009.
Amelia has been busy writing and recording music all summer. She wrote the music to an orange commercial called "rewind", which you can find at www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIY3-ECJQlg.
She's also just done the video for The Streets new single "Everything is Borrowed" which is on youtube at www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8BHL5SWX0Q.
