Welcome to a new year of Wayne’s World! I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and Val and I send you all the very best wishes for 2020.

Over the last year, as well as writing about community events and performances that I was involved in, I occasionally interviewed people who I hope you found as interesting as I did.

As a lover of the dramatic arts I really enjoyed interviewing actors from the world of stage and screen and learning what makes them tick.

I especially enjoyed interviewing Danny Brocklehurst and learning about his busy life as a screenwriter.

I hope to bring you more of these interviews this year.

I have loved writing this column for you and hopefully I have helped show you what a brilliant borough we all live in.

I’m sure you already know this but it’s nice to have things highlighted.

As an Urmston man I love to scream and shout about my particular part of Trafford, my home town that I’m very proud of and all the things it has to offer, but I am proud of and love to highlight what the whole of the borough has to offer.

As I said in my last column. We live in a fantastic place.

I started my community website last year to give a central hub for events, groups and clubs in Trafford and it’s been an amazing success with well over 200,000 visitors.

Not bad for a seven month old website.

‘All About Trafford’ is a success because Trafford has got behind it and I thank you for that.

I created it for you and I hope you will continue to use it in 2020.

My weekly video ‘A Word from Wayne’ that goes on the site each Monday at 6pm is now on average receiving around 12,500 views which is fantastic so I hope you will continue to watch that each week!

‘All About Trafford’ will grow and develop even more throughout the year and I hope you will continue to send me your events, clubs and groups by emailing me at devlinbookings@aol.com so I can put them on the website for you.

Visit www.allabouttrafford.co.uk ‘All About Trafford’ really is at the heart of Trafford.

So in my first column of the year I want to wish you all the very best for 2020.

I hope you have all enjoyed your New Year’s Day celebrations and I look forward to sharing another year with you here in Wayne’s World. Thank you as always for your continued support and I will see you all next week!
