Brighton with Nik, 2025
Today, Tuesday 20th May 2025, Nik and I head off for a short trip to Brighton. We stopped off in The Lanes for a short time, and played with Tooter Pooter, which was very funny, and then stopped for lunch in Breakfast At Tiffany’s, a café. We also had a bubble tea in Pearl’s.
The Assembly TV show
The TV show ‘The Assembly’ was brilliant. I watched each of the four episodes, featuring guest celebrities Gary Linekar, Jade Thirlwall, Danny Dyer and David Tennant. They are asked questions, interview style in a room of inquisitive interviewers who are autistic, neurodivergent and/or learning disabled. The theme of the show is that no questions are…
Homemade Bubble Tea
With Jezz and I having a penchant for bubble tea, Jezz decided to get the ingredients to make them ourselves at home. It’s quite straight forward and involves a herbal fruit tea (optional), ice, a sugar-free flavoured syrup and popping Boba pearls. And Jezz, in his infinite wisdom, bought these jars with lids from IKEA…
Easy like a Sunday morning
Jezz and I were up and out nice and early so we could get around IKEA before it got too busy. We got everything we needed and then went to McDonald’s for lunch.
Sprinklers are working then
The garden sprinklers are placed in the garden to deter unwanted visitors who tend to use our garden as a litter tray. The 3 strategically placed motion-sensored sprinklers are a fine solution.
Skechers – a collection
I’ve now created a page dedicated to the trainers I’ve been collecting. They’re called Skechers and I have 13 pairs so far.
Full English – the home team way
Jezz and I, after an extended lazy lie-in, got up and went into the kitchen together for a proper Full English cooked breakfast. We made it, ate it and cleared up together. What a lovely Saturday morning with my husband. And later, had an afternoon tea with fresh scones and cream and British strawberries.
Yes, I know… but it was a one-off
Anyone who knows me will know that I don’t do Starbucks, Costa, Nero or Pret or any others that I can’t think of right now. I hate the sheep-behaviour and mentality that somehow it hip and cool to order a poncy coffee with a shit name and pay £4.95 for it. However, whilst out with…
Great to see Vick again
On Friday evening, 2 May 2025, our wonderful mate, Vicki, came round to see us. It was booked in the calendar as she had said last month she was going to treat me to a takeaway. We collected a curry and Jezz had pizza from another shop close by. It’s always so nice having Vick…

“The biggest loss in my life that is… my dear father. He continues to live on inside of me: with his laughter in my mind and his love in my heart. Broken and lost, I spend the never-ending task of picking up the pieces… and re-living some of my most cherished memories that have Dad in them.” ~ Wayne
This section of the website is a tribute to those who have been near and dear to me during their life but have now passed on.
On Saturday 6th November 2021, Jezz and I got married. It was also a celebration of Jezz’s 50th birthday and our 21st anniversary.
This page has links to almost all the mini-videos that I have created over the years. Some are humorous, some nostalgic or feature a particular event, and some are in memory of a loved one.
This page is all about the cars that I have either had the privilege to drive or ones that I have owned or co-owned. Some of the photos are of the actual car but of the ones where I didn’t take a photo at the time, I have had some fun trying to find one that best matches the car.
Here’s a page of photos created from using an iPhone app called Halftones that started a trend of photo editing in comic strip style, just for a laff.
waynealton.com has its own recommendations page: if there’s a business you’re after, then have a look to see if we used a company in the same line of work from someone… if they were fab, they’ll be on this page!
New in 2024, Wayne lists his favourite songs of all time.
We would like to remind our infrequent visitors of the “Previous Quotes” page. Some folk have contributed to waynealton.com over the years without even knowing it! The Previous Quotes page is all about wacky, hysterical, inappropriate and even beautiful statements that have been said by mostly those near and dear.
My fascination of the underwear brand Step One has meant that I have collected over 90 pairs since I bought my first pair, 12 April 2022. So far, my collection has cost £1,736.96, but if you include the pairs I’ve bought for Jezz as well, the grand total is £3,112.82, as of February 2025.
I’m in love with my underwear… what can I say?
