     1        A.  I do, yes.  Thank you.  16, I believe?
     2
     3   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.
     4
     5   MS. STEEL:   Just a couple of things about this.  At the bottom
     6        of the page, you said:
     7
     8        "Throughout the course of this speech and, indeed, the
     9        whole of the meeting, McDonald's was mentioned only once
    10        briefly, and that in a list of campaigns past and present."
    11
    12        So, certainly, in terms of this meeting, McDonald's was not
    13        a feature?
    14        A.  No; as is written, it was mentioned once briefly.
    15
    16   Q.   I am just confirming that that is correct; yes?
    17        A.  Yes.
    18
    19   Q.   On the second page, the very last sentence that starts:
    20        "I expressed considerable interest in the group, and after
    21        some conversation relating to the discussion which had just
    22        taken place, I was invited to attend the weekly meeting
    23        carried out in their office in Caledonian Road next
    24        Thursday, 2nd November.  I was invited to arrive early and
    25        then I could help them with the answering of some of the
    26        mail."
    27
    28        That is correct, is it, or correct as you recall?
    29        A.  I stand by what I have written, yes.
    30
    31   Q.   So, basically, it was after you had expressed considerable
    32        interest in the group that you were invited to get
    33        involved?
    34        A.  That is the order of events, yes.  I expressed interest
    35        and then I was invited.
    36
    37   Q.   And also invited to help with answering letters, it was
    38        after you had expressed considerable interest in the group?
    39        A.  It is.  I do not know if it was a result of me
    40        expressing considerable interest, but it was certainly
    41        afterwards, yes.
    42
    43   MR. MORRIS:  A couple of things about those notes.  That
    44        conversation you indicate was with me, yes?
    45        A.  Yes.
    46
    47   Q.   On the bottom of the page before: "At this time I managed
    48        to speak to Dave" -- this is the third line up from the
    49        bottom of page 2 -- "he informed me that off and on he had
    50        been involved with the group for about 10 years."  That is 
    51        your recollection; yes? 
    52        A.  I cannot actually find where you are. 
    53
    54   Q.   Sorry, it is page 2; it is the third line up.
    55
    56   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Page 17 of the bundle.
    57        A.  Yes. "He informed me that off and on he had been
    58        involved with the group for about 10 years" -- yes.
    59
    60   MR. MORRIS:  Right.  So, sometimes I was involved with the
