PHOTO ALBUM
A selection from the Rookard photo album, or personal vanity on my part.
THIS PAGE IS UNDER RE-CONTRUCTION
BUT HERES A FEW OLDIES TO BE GOING ON WITH.


Dennis Rookard seen here driving the Brentwood & District Talking Newspaper for the Blind mixer, whilst recording one of their productions. Aside from his voluntary production for this local Brentwood Charity, he acts as their Technical Consultant and studio manager and was responsible for the design and construction of their studio.

Some unkind folk in hospital broadcasting have suggested that the Hosiprog studio looks something like this.. a small garden shed with egg boxes on the wall and an old Grundig quarter track tape recorder as master machine. Oh ye of little faith, it's all quite untrue. We threw out the egg boxes just the other week !


For those of you wanting to know where Brentwood, Essex is located, heres an answer. It comes from a Russian spy satellite photo ( I kid you not ! ) and is taken from one of their spy-sats (don't you just love the ending of the cold war) This shot is of Brentwood and the arrow sort of points to my home in Fairfield Road. Just as well I can't zoom in closer because you might then see the state of my garden. Now I wonder if Uncle Boris in Moscow has a nice close up I can use.
