Day 265 - 19 Jun 96 - Page 68


     
     1        A.   Yes.  Whoever held the agenda or it may have been
     2        whoever was taking the meeting because I cannot recall, but
     3        it may have been somebody present who said:  "We have
     4        talked about this enough.  Let us move on."
     5
     6   Q.   What if the discussion was getting long-winded?
     7        A.  If it was getting long-winded or if there was not much
     8        to say, you would just move on to the next piece of
     9        business.
    10
    11   Q.   Right.  And the previous events and coming events they
    12        would not just have been events of London Greenpeace; they
    13        would be if anybody attended and if anything that was
    14        coming up, any type of event; whether this was a London
    15        Greenpeace event or something organized by a completely
    16        different group?
    17        A.  From recollection, yes.  It would be anything in the
    18        group, or members in the group in another capacity would be
    19        involved in.
    20
    21   Q.   Right.  And the letters section was basically any letters
    22        that had been received over the past week.  People would
    23        take it in turn to read out different letters so that
    24        everybody who was there, you know, could hear what had been
    25        sent in, in the previous week?
    26        A.   I think that is what happened, yes.
    27
    28   Q.   Right.  I mean, you took the minutes on occasions, did you
    29        not?
    30        A.   I believe I did, yes.
    31
    32   Q.   There was no significance in who took the minutes.  It was
    33        just thrown open to volunteers?
    34        A.  Yes.  It was thrown open to volunteers and those who
    35        were there if they wanted to.
    36
    37   Q.   Right.  Generally speaking there would be about five-ten
    38        people at most of the meetings at Caledonian Road.  Would
    39        you agree with that?  Sometimes less?
    40        A.   Yes.  Ten sounds a lot on an average, but it could be.
    41
    42   Q.   You think it would be somewhere nearer five?
    43        A.   It could be three.  Half-a-dozen, may be more.
    44
    45   Q.   Right?
    46        A.   It would depend.  It fluctuated.
    47
    48   Q.   It would be unusual to have more than ten though, at
    49        Caledonian Road?
    50        A.   Yes.  From recollection it would be.  You would be 
    51        struggling to fit them in. 
    52 
    53   Q.   Did you attend a London Greenpeace mail out?
    54        A.   Sorry, a mail out?
    55
    56   Q.   Yes, where letters were sent to groups all over the world
    57        or all over the country enclosing a variety of leaflets?
    58        A.   I do not recall a specific event as a mail out. I
    59        recall members of the group sending letters and responding
    60        to letters but I never did a "mail out," as such.
