1 Q. It was because you were sacked because you were caught out
2 in a little piece of dishonesty. That is why, is it not?
3 You wanted to get your own back, did you not?
4 A. I was never dishonest -- never dishonest.
5
6 Q. How long do you say Gumboro disease persisted at Sun
7 Valley?
8 A. All the time I was at Sun Valley.
9
10 Q. All the time?
11 A. Yes, when I was at Sun Valley.
12
13 Q. 1987 to 1993?
14 A. That is right.
15
16 Q. It lasted a year, did it not, April 1989 through to some
17 time in 1990?
18 A. No.
19
20 MS. STEEL: This is misleading. That is not what Dr. Pattison
21 said.
22
23 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes, you may or may not be right about that,
24 but he is entitled to put the question.
25
26 MR. RAMPTON: The average number of birds found dead in a shed
27 of 25,000 is something like 50, is it not?
28 A. I would not say so, no.
29
30 Q. Do you know what the rate of birds dead-on-arrival at the
31 slaughterhouse is at Sun Valley?
32 A. I do not.
33
34 Q. If you are telling the truth, it would be a very large
35 number, would it not, birds hurled in, drawers slammed
36 shut, necks crushed, heads crushed, wounded birds, birds
37 with broken legs, broken wings, it would be an enormous
38 amount?
39 A. I cannot answer you because I do not know what the rate
40 is of broken legs or wings are in the factory. If a lorry
41 tips over and there is 5,000 dead on road, you can say,
42 yes, there is 5,000 dead because you have seen them. When
43 they go to the factory you do not see them, do you? They
44 could be 55 miles away.
45
46 Q. Where did you get 49 unused pairs of yellow ribbed gloves?
47 A. 49 pair of -- I think it was, all I am saying it was
48 49. Let us take 10 pair off that, I will take nine pair
49 off and make it equal 40, for argument's sake. There was
50 what I have gathered from while I was employed by myself
51 and I had given me off my daughter's boyfriend at the time
52 when he was working for a firm that went bankrupt.
53
54 Q. Where did you get the 17 pairs of white socks from?
55 A. 17 pair of socks, I think it was three of Sun Valley's
56 so that is, what, about 14, 14 pair of my own and three
57 pair of Sun Valley's which I would have had off different
58 cold stores what I worked.
