1 number, the full number of turns, at about 12 to 14.

3 Q. Was there anyone you recognised on that picket?
4 A. No.
5
6 Q. Did you tell these details to the solicitors the next day?
7
8 MR. JUSTICE BELL: This is '87 still?
9 A. Yes... No... Well, I told them eventually, yes.
10 There was no hurry to tell them the next day.
11
12 Q. The next day was the specific question.
13
14 MS. STEEL: Within 2 days, or something like that?
15 A. I do not know. At that time I think the partner at
16 Barlows who was dealing with Greenpeace was Ian Jenkins. I
17 would certainly meet up with him and discuss what had taken
18 place.
19
20 Q. But it was different to 1989 when you went to the
21 solicitors office and gave full details was it?
22 A. No, in 1989 the solicitor came to our office.
23 I believe it was the next day.
24
25 Q. So, that was because at that time you had decided that you
26 wanted to take action against the group and so you wanted
27 to use what had occurred on the picket as evidence in any
28 court case that might be coming up, or that was intended?
29 A. No, not really. My object of attending in '89, I had
30 had you and Paul Gravett identified to me and I had, at
31 that time, made up my mind... In fact, I had already
32 started. I had interviewed the teams that I was going to
33 put in to do the observation, and I wanted to get a copy of
34 the leaflet and I wanted to see how you and Paul Gravett
35 fitted in to the organisation. I was the only person at
36 that time who knew about you and Paul Gravett.
37
38 Q. You wanted to get a copy of the leaflet at that time?
39 A. Yes.
40
41 Q. But you already had one?
42 A. I had several.
43
44 Q. You had?
45 A. Several.
46
47 Q. You had several?
48 A. Yes.
49
50 Q. Of the leaflets complained of in this action?
51 A. Yes, and variations of the one complained of in this
52 action.
53
54 Q. Where had you got the copies of the leaflet complained of
55 -- not the variations?
56 A. From all over. They were starting to come in from the
57 United States, they started coming in from Canada, they
58 started coming in from Europe. I believe they started
59 coming in from Japan. I cannot remember whether the ones
60 coming in... The ones coming in from the State were
