• Justice Bewes : I wonder when you give your evidence to the court if you would avoid the temptation to which we often find that people in occupation such as yours are somewhat susceptible, namely the utilisation of trade jargon such as 'slingers' or 'slashers' or 'cowboys' or similar nomenclature, which though colourful and doubtless descriptively accurate nevertheless have to be explained at tedious length to the jury and this results in the consumption of an inordinate amount of court time which might usefully be allocated to other cases - simple language, Mr Marshall, will suffice.
