Hi freebird,
Thanks for your reply

I got back from work 3 hours ago and went straight to the birdcage haha :P I left the radio on for him today and yesterday and he has seemed very happy each time i've got home.
I took your advice as he looked quite excited and opened his cage he didn't leave on his own but he was happy to leave the cage on my hand. Even if he flew off me onto the top of the cage

i'm guessing thats where he feels most safe. He spent a total of about 30 minutes outside the cage looking around sliding down the sides of the cage, it looked like he was playing agame but I'm really chuffed!.
He climed onto my arm from the cage when i presented it after me whistling and calling his name and he was quite happy sitting there for about 15 minutes
I can't belive how tame he is already although i think my girlfriend is getting slightly stressed with how much time i'm spending with him.
He's such a lovely bird but still pecks my fingers abit every now and then, hopefully that will just pass in time
