While never working on Trunk Test, I seemed to spend a lot of time down there. Normally annoying Dan Connell (swing low, sweet chariot). This was the main location for slightly rude films, anything knock-off and football referees. And, of course, the vast bulk of City F.C. when it was first formed.
Trunk Test, 3rd Floor SE Block, Faraday
Trunk Test The Staff Donated by Dave Perkins, who left them to me in his will, the following photographs show the working environment of Trunk Test, while the last two show a bright spot in the normal working day. I think that I'm lying on the floor in those two, can't understand why. I have the unedited copies if anyone is interested ? Memories of Trunk Test : The film club Disco nights at Sinatras in Croydon. Getting a feed for the radios to take up to 4th floor, which then got cabled onto outlet 21 as the busy tone.
This photo, sent in by Derek Allison, is of trunk test during the 60's. Obviously, it was taken just after a shout of 'Kent boys away !'
Please email me with any names for people shown, especially in the last two photos.
Ben Turner, Ken Taylor, Laurie Williams
