3 MR. MORRIS: Yes. If it is any help, we are pretty confident
4 that we will definitely be finished by the end of this
5 week.
6
7 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes. Keep going. Sit down and see where you
8 are now. (Pause)
9
10 MR. MORRIS: Sorry, we are just trying to sort out what to do.
11 Maybe if we go on to something completely different for a
12 while?

14 MS. STEEL: You said in your evidence-in-chief about Philip
15 Pearson. You said he rang you in the morning and said he
16 wanted to distribute literature to the crew members at
17 Warren Street. You said he could distribute outside the
18 store. You said, as you understand it, he was there for
19 about an hour; is that right, yes?
20 A. That was my understanding, according to the Restaurant
21 Manager.
22
23 Q. How did you know that he was there for about an hour?
24 A. The Restaurant Manager phoned me and told me he had
25 left.
26
27 Q. Did you ask the Restaurant Manager for a report on what is
28 going on?
29 A. Oh, yes, I did -- verbally.
30
31 Q. A verbal report.
32 A. Yes, I did.
33
34 Q. Why did you ask the Restaurant Manager for a report?
35 A. Because I wanted to know.
36
37 Q. Why should it worry you if a member of a union is handing
38 out leaflets to crew members?
39 A. It did not worry me. It did not worry me.
40
41 Q. If it did not worry you, why should you want to know?
42 A. Of course I want to know. I want to know everything
43 that happens at a store. I want to know when members of
44 London Greenpeace stand outside of a store and distribute
45 literature and I want to know when they leave.
46
47 Q. Do you receive reports of every single occasion when any
48 single leaflet gets handed out outside a store?
49 A. It is very difficult because -----
50
51 MR. JUSTICE BELL: You had specifically ask to be told?
52 A. Yes.
53
54 Q. Presumably, you would ask the Manager that after
55 Mr. Pearson had rung you up ---
56 A. Yes.
57
58 Q. -- to enquire about speaking to crew members?
59 A. Of course, yes.
