1
2 Q. You have done that?
3 A. Yes.
4
5 Q. What is the appropriate training course that you have done?
6 A. The applied equipment course.
7
8 MR. JUSTICE BELL: The?
9 A. Applied equipment course.
10
11 MR. MORRIS: Toasters break quite regularly, do they, at Bath?
12 A. No.
13
14 Q. Or need repair or a replacement part?
15 A. Well, if he regularly as in they breakdown, for
16 instance, a toaster might break once a year, it might need
17 a buzzer or a timer replacing, and if you have four
18 toasters, then perhaps you might get one going every
19 quarter.
20
21 Q. So there are normally four toasters in use?
22 A. In the kitchen area.
23
24 Q. In the kitchen area. When you said that it was more a
25 question of replacement, that includes replacing some
26 wiring inside?
27 A. No. All you would replace would be a self-contained
28 part, something like a buzzer or a timer.
29
30 Q. What happens when, say, a wire went inside?
31 A. You phoned up the appropriate service company and got
32 one of the spares down from upstairs.
33
34 MR. MORRIS: We are not going to finish today, but we are just
35 trying to work out what would be most useful in the last
36 part of the day. I am quite tired.
37
38 MR. JUSTICE BELL: How long do you think -- please sit down,
39 Mr. Richards -- you are going to be altogether?
40
41 MR. MORRIS: We think that actually we have probably got about
42 an hour and a half or less, an hour, an hour and a half.
43 I think we could guarantee to finish by 12.00 tomorrow.
44
45 MR. JUSTICE BELL: What I suggest then is Mrs. French, if it
46 helps her in any way, I will say not before 12.00.
47
48 MR. RAMPTON: Your Lordship is very kind. I would like to be
49 able to tell her that she can start at 12.00. The reason
50 I say that is this, that I notice that there is one
51 paragraph of Mr. Logan's supplementary statement which
52 Mr. Morris has not already dealt with, and maybe two or
53 three in Mr. Richards' statement. I would earnestly
54 beseech your Lordship not to allow Mr. Morris or Ms. Steel
55 to go over any of the same ground that we have covered over
56 the last two days.
57
58 MR. JUSTICE BELL: No, you have, in fact, shortened the estimate
59 which you gave about 35 or 40 minutes ago, because that was
60 two and a half hours about altogether. So, if we finish
