     2   MR. MORRIS:  It was X2 in our supplementary list for packaging.
     3        If you remember, I think we had X1 to 12 or something.
     4
     5   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Does that mean it is one of your blue
     6        volumes?
     7
     8   MR. MORRIS:  I do not know where that served supplementary list
     9        was put; it was served on all parties.
    10
    11   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I am not sure whether -----
    12
    13   MR. MORRIS:  I think it was when we questioned Mr. Preston.  It
    14        was not our packaging supplementary list, but it must have
    15        been documents served when we questioned Mr. Preston.
    16
    17   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  The problem at the moment is identifying it
    18        or finding where it is so that not only you and Professor
    19        Ashworth have a copy but the rest of us do too.
    20
    MR. MORRIS:  Yes.  It was served at the same time as the Keep
    22        Britain Tidy "Litter and The Law" document which we served
    23        in this case.
    24
    25   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  What I suggest is -- Mr. Rampton has a copy,
    26        does he?
    27
    28   MR. RAMPTON:  I do now, my Lord, yes.  I do not know whose copy
    29        it is supposed to be.
    30
    31   MR. MORRIS:  That is the witness's copy.  I have a spare copy of
    32        the front sheet.  As far as I am concerned, I served it on
    33        the Plaintiffs and on yourself.
    34
    35   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  But when?  Do you mean you handed it to me on
    36        one day in court?
    37
    38   MR. MORRIS:  It was served with the original service of this
    39        document.
    40
    MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes, I did not see that until Mr. Rampton put
    42        it to Mr. Stump.
    43
    44   MR. MORRIS:  No, we put this to Mr. Preston.  All the Tidy
    45        Britain Group -----
    46
    47   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I do not think I had a copy.
    48
    49   MR. MORRIS:  This is part of the problem.  Our documents do not
    50        seem to be finding their way into the indexes or into 
    51        proper filing.  I have suggested a way of dealing with this 
    52        but nobody seems to listen. 
    53
    54   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  One way you could deal with it is to have a
    55        ring binder yourself into which you put and index documents
    56        which you produce.  If McDonald's solicitors choose to
    57        bundle them and it has indexed them for you, well and good,
    58        but if they do not do that, if they are documents which you
    59        have produced you are responsible for them.  It is not as
    60        if it is difficult; all you need is some ring binders, a
