                                        STEPHEN PLAISTER, Cross-examined:
 
 
 
     1        shift, would it not?
     2        A.  Yes.
     3
     4   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Presumably, you would be one of the easiest
     5        to suit with regard to getting a break more or less in the
     6        middle of your shift?
     7        A.  Yes.
     8
     9   Q.   Because more or less the middle of your shift coincides
    10        with one of the less busy periods?
    11        A.  Yes, it does.
    12
    13   MR. MORRIS:   We have nearly finished now.
    14
    15   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  How far do you live from the store?
    16        A.  About a five-minute walk.
    17
    18   MR. MORRIS:  You have had four entries that we could find in the
    19        Accident Book -- three.  Have you checked the Accident
    20        Book?
    21        A.  Yes, I have.
    22
    23   Q.   Are you more accident prone than anyone else?
    24        A.  I would not say so.
    25
    26   Q.   Are you conscientious about putting accidents that happen
    27        to you in the book?
    28        A.  Yes, I am.
    29
    30   Q.   You said you got a formal written warning for picking up
    31        dropped food from the floor and using it?
    32        A.  Yes, I did.
    33
    34   Q.   Why did you do that?
    35        A.  Why?
    36
    37   Q.   Yes.
    38        A.  I do not know, really; I just probably lost
    39        concentration or something.
    40
    41   MR. MORRIS:  We are just seeing if we have any further
    42        questions.
    43
    44   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.
    45
    46   MR. MORRIS:  We have found four entries.  Would you accept there
    47        are four entries in the Accident Book?
    48        A.  Yes.  Have I signed them?
    49
    50   Q.   Do you remember that you slipped on an icy floor and a box 
    51        dropped on your leg? 
    52        A.  Yes.  I was doing a delivery at the time. 
    53
    54   Q.   And one was -- a fry box fell on your face?
    55        A.  Yes.
    56
    57   Q.   One was for burning your hand, I think, on a grill?
    58        A.  Yes.
    59
    60   Q.   Trying to get a sausage off it, or something?
