     2   MR. MORRIS:  Yes, I can see.
     3
     4   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  -- the sentence which starts with the three
     5        words at the end of that line, the whole of the next line
     6        and half the next.
     7
     8   MR. MORRIS:  Yes.
     9
    10   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  It is not mystery.  It would just be unfair
    11        if in front of you I spoke out about what Mr. Morris must
    12        conduct the cross-examination in his own way, and I am just
    13        directing him to the particular part which he may well have
    14        in mind in any event.
    15
    16   MR. MORRIS:  The general situation with lockers at the store
    17        around this period, as I understand it -- tell me if I am
    18        wrong -- was that people tended to have their own locker,
    19        but they had to put their own lock on it?
    20        A.  Their own lock; it would not be their own locker.
    21
    22   Q.   Right, but people would prefer to keep the same locker each
    23        day?
    24        A.  Prefer, but that is not the policy.
    25
    26   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Really, I do not think you need go into that,
    27        whether in itself or as an approach to the particular
    28        issue.  What I would like you to do is put the bit I have
    29        just referred to you.
    30
    31   MR. MORRIS:  Yes, I was just building up for that really.
    32
    33   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I mean, there must be a limit to build up.
    34        We have had some build-up (which I do not criticise at all)
    35        before lunch which I have seen you are directing at
    36        Mr. Giardina's credibility about the union leaflets and so
    37        on.  I really do think we have got to the point where you
    38        should just put that allegation and see what the response
    39        is.
    40
    41   MR. MORRIS (To the witness):  Do you remember Dave Magee
    42        speaking to you saying that you had removed his lock from
    43        his locker?
    44        A.  No.
    45
    46   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Put what the response was.
    47
    48   MR. MORRIS:  If somebody was keeping a locker to themselves
    49        against your policy, yes, and you could not find who it
    50        was, what would you have to do? 
    51        A.  First of all, we would put a notice up in the crew room 
    52        maybe saying that we want all the lockers emptied, etc. 
    53        etc.  If by a week, or whatever the date on the letter in
    54        the crew room, or if by that time they still had not, then
    55        I have a little tiny locker that would go into the hole as
    56        well.  So then when someone tried to got their uniform,
    57        they would have to come to me.  That was stated quite
    58        clearly in the crew room that that is what would happen.
    59
    60   Q.   If they did not come to him, say, they died and did not
