Every Friday morning the duty compiler calls at the Gazette's offices in West Ealing
and collects two copies each of the three editions of the Gazette - Ealing & Acton,
Southall and Greenford. Most pages are the same in all three editions, but there are
sometimes items of particular interest to different parts of the London Borough of Ealing.
Over the next three hours the compiler selects items for the 60 minute tape, cuts them
out and prepares them for a team of four readers to start promptly at 2pm. Recording is usually finished by 3.15pm,
leaving time for the sound technician to make almost two hundred copy cassettes and put them into ready-addressed
mailing wallets before the postman calls. Listeners receive their tape when the postman
calls on Saturday morning.
