“What?” Asked Wayne looking confused, and then replied, “My<br />
wife didn’t die.”<br />
Elvin and Steve chortled.<br />
“She didn’t die,” said Elvin. “He just lost 'er.”<br />
“What?” Wayne asked, again fiddling with his hearing-aid.<br />

Wayne was popular among the female residents of Fossdyke. When<br />
he'd first moved in, they flocked around him like a Liverpool<br />
postman on giro day. Even Mrs. Chew had a crush on old Wayne,<br />
even though she was married and 20 years his junior.<br />
Wayne told Charles that he'd resided at Fossdyke now for two<br />
years. Originally from Ontario, Canada, he had settled in<br />
Cleethorpes 15 years ago, after spending many years trying to trace<br />
his long lost love, Julie.<br />
He explained that his family originated from Sicily and owned an<br />
Italian restaurant chain in Canada. His sights were set on becoming<br />
a musician. He left the family home on his 16th birthday and joined<br />
‘The Alex Gilroy Band,’ a seven-piece swing band. He'd studied<br />
music at school, and although he could play keyboard instruments,<br />
his forte, and love, was for the drums. He was given the nickname<br />
‘Sticks,’ as he always carried around a set of drumsticks, which he<br />
tapped at anything that he felt could offer a beat: bottles, cans,<br />
peoples’ heads. He had toured as the band’s drummer throughout<br />
Canada. Wayne remained with them for several years, until the rock<br />
’n’ roll revolution hit America in the late fifties. He relocated to the<br />
U.S. where he joined 'Johnny and the Jeepsters,' a rock ’n’ roll and<br />
skiffle band. Throughout the sixties and seventies, he moved around<br />
with various bands.
