    16                     Cross-examined by the Defendants
    17
    18   MS. STEEL:   Can I just clarify when was it that the Feltham
    19        store opened?
    20        A.  April.  It was Good Friday -- April 4th, I believe.
    21
    22   Q.   April 4th.  That was when the crew were transferred that
    23        you were talking about, was it?
    24        A.  The crew that were trained at Heathrow were transferred
    25        to Feltham, yes, that is correct.
    26
    27   Q.   Were they transferred there a week before to get it ready
    28        or just like as it opened, or -----
    29        A.  Most of them were transferred over the day before, or
    30        some were a few days prior, just to help to clean up the
    31        restaurant.
    32
    33   Q.   There is one thing I am not sure about.  Those staff that
    34        were trained at the Heathrow restaurant -- yes?
    35        A.  Yes.
    36
    37   Q.   -- the ones that you were referring to, were they actually
    38        hired at the Feltham branch or were they hired at the
    39        Heathrow branch?
    40        A.  They could not have been hired at the Feltham branch,
    41        because the store was not built.  They were hired from the
    42        Job Centre.  There is a Job Centre near Feltham.  Kim was
    43        doing the hiring for me, with the Store Manager of Feltham.
    44
    45   Q.   Kim Moffatt?
    46        A.  Yes.
    47
    48   Q.   Who was the Store Manager of Feltham?
    49        A.  Jerry Burns.
    50 
    51   Q.   And he stayed the Manager until Mr. Nevison took over? 
    52        A.  No.  Jerry got promoted to Area Manager after a short 
    53        while.
    54
    55   Q.   So the store opened in April; Mr. Nevison took over as
    56        Manager in June, at the end of June?
    57        A.  You are referring to Feltham?
    58
    59   Q.   Of Feltham, yes.
    60        A.  When Dave Roberts was put into Heathrow, John took over
 
                                      35
