A; - Only thing is, I didn't notice it. I didn't have an occasion to look for it.
Q; - I suppose you were aware the swing was liable to be open?
A; - Mr Fowler told me to slack up.

Q; -
A: - Where you have gates up pedestrians cannot go over.
Q; - There is a notice up, "vehicles are not to go faster than a walk"?
