Was this you at the SMART meeting in October 2022? asks John Busbridge.

John Busbridge… At the last meeting I was talking to a gentleman about recording and Garage Band and he told me that he had set up his own recording studio and about a superb guy on You Tube who was a great help to him . The person I was talking to told me the name and I remembered it until I got home and promptly forgot it, an age thing! If you reconise yourself can you kindly remind me who you recomended?

Tony Wilson… Judges staff around 1983-84

Alan Esdaile… I remember passing this building many times as a kid and then saying to my parents, that I didn’t understand why they make postcards for judges, as their can’t be many judges in the country. Oh how they laughed!

Colin Bell… My cousin Linda worked there forever! never got any free postcards though

Barry French… The gentleman standing in the middle of the front row is Bernard Wolford, who was previously the Managing Director of catering equipment manufactures WM Stills. I was at Stills for six years in the 1970’s & always found him a pleasant man.

Tracy Birrell… Love this picture.
