     2        "The survey results which were presented to McDonald's in
     3        early October indicate", etcetera.  In other words, this
     4        must have been written after the survey was presented to
     5        you; it cannot be extracted directly from the survey?
     6        A.  The second paragraph refers to the PUP survey.

     8   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Just think about it.
     9        A.  My Lord, these are their words.  I am trying to
    10        interpret their words.
    11
    12   Q.   I think the first thing to find out is were the survey
    13        results -- can you remember whether the survey results were
    14        presented to McDonald's in early October?
    15        A.  The PUP survey results?
    16
    17   Q.   No, because it cannot -- the survey results cannot refer to
    18        the PUP survey results because they are the survey results
    19        which indicate that the PUP claim was inaccurate.
    20        A.  I see what you are saying.
    21
    22   Q.   What I am asking you is whether you can remember if survey
    23        results were presented to McDonald's in early October.
    24        Just answer that question, first of all.
    25        A.  I am trying to go back over the timetable.  They sent
    26        out the materials, I think, in July or so, and then it
    27        would have -- it is possible they came back in October.
    28
    29   Q.   The other thing is this:  Can you remember receiving any
    30        survey results from TPF&C before you actually got their
    31        written report?
    32        A.  That part I do recall.
    33
    34   Q.   What happened then?
    35        A.  They just sent us preliminary data and said, "Here is
    36        what we have and we are proceeding with the final report".
    37        The problem that I am having, my Lord, is remembering the
    38        timing.
    39
    40   Q.   What I suggest you do, Mr. Morris and Ms. Steel, is if you
    41        have any further questions which you had in mind to ask
    42        those.  If you wish to overnight you can check the
    43        transcript or Caseview, and you can read through again,
    44        although you clearly have read it already, tab 94 and you
    45        can ask tomorrow if there is anything you want to challenge
    46        Mr. Stein on.
    47
    48   MS. STEEL:  I have actually found the relevant part of the
    49        transcript on the screen.
    50 
    51   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Is it today or an earlier one? 
    52 
    53   MS. STEEL:  It is today, yes.  We were talking about number --
    54        this tab and you -- in fact, it was you who asked
    55        Mr. Stein, "Who actually prepared the summary?" and you
    56        said, "We, McDonald's, prepared the summary from extracts
    57        from their documents".
    58
    59   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  That is a quibble for you, or could be.  What
    60        I suggest you do is not only look at that but look at the
