     1        opposite side of Kings Road as well?
     2        A.  Yes, sir, it does.
     3
     4   Q.   On average, do you recall how long these trash walks would
     5        take?
     6        A.  On average, it will take, depending on what day it is
     7        and how crew member feels, but it will take 15 minutes at
     8        the most.
     9
    10   Q.   Do you have any idea how many bags of environment/index.html">litter the trash
    11        walks would generate during the course of an ordinary day's
    12        trading?
    13        A.  Because we use compactor -- I will tell you the
    14        compactor bags.
    15
    16   Q.   I was wondering if you had any idea before they are
    17        compacted; first of all, let me ask you this:  How in your
    18        day was the environment/index.html">litter picked up in the Kings Road area?
    19        A.  We used to use a sack and with a environment/index.html">litter picker.
    20
    Q.   So in your day there was not a cart?
    22        A.  No, there was not.
    23
    24   Q.   No.  How many bags do you think before compaction in the
    25        course of a day would the environment/index.html">litter patrols manage to bring
    26        back?
    27        A.  How many bags?
    28
    29   Q.   How many full bags?
    30        A.  It never used to be full bag but it might be six,
    31        seven, eight cartons, but not on every turn.  Sometimes you
    32        would come back with maybe a straw, just one cup or one
    33        wrap.
    34
    35   Q.   Would the next patrol take out the same bag only partly
    36        filled?
    37        A.  Not necessarily, because that bag we sometimes used to
    38        use for, to use the bins which are inside the restaurant or
    39        the outside which we placed it on the Royal Avenue.
    40
    Q.   Let me ask you about the outside bins:  In your day how
    42        many bins were there in the streets outside the restaurant?
    43        A.  There were our bins, there were two of our bins,
    44        McDonald's bins, in Royal Avenue.
    45
    46   Q.   Two McDonald's bins.  Are they those bins sponsored by
    47        McDonald's?
    48        A.  No, they were the bins which were actually owned by
    49        McDonald's.  Those two were in Royal Avenue.  Once I spoke
    50        to Miss Linda Wells and we had a meeting, I said that 
    51        I will sponsor some Council bins and, if I remember it 
    52        correctly, I sponsored four bins which were Council bins; 
    53        one to be put at the corner of Smith Street, the second one
    54        went just at the corner of Wellington Square, the one went
    55        opposite where Haagen Dazs is.
    56
    57   Q.   That is the ice cream shop?
    58        A.  Ice cream shop.  The fourth one was around Royal
    59        Avenue, but the bin placement used to differ because when
    60        the Council people who used to come in to collect the
