Clues

  • Both parties accepted a contractual obligation, the effect of the agreement was to displace a statutory limitation which would otherwise have applied (3, 8, 8)
  • D had not committed the offence with which he was charged, b/c he had not "offered" bird for sale (8, 1, 10)
  • Denning in Gibson v Manchester CC: "no need to look for strict O&A - should look at correspondence and conduct as a whole" to see whether parties agree on everything material (9, 2, 6, 2)
  • Displaying flick knife not offer (7, 1, 4)
  • inference that ad is offer more likely drawn in unilateral contract (8, 5, 4)
  • ITT - Spencer v Harding (7, 3, 2, 5)
  • P and D entered yachts into a regatta, agreeing to be bound by rules of YRA. One was that the owner of any yacht disobeying any rules would be liable for any damages arising therefrom. D's yacht ran into P's (not D's fault) (3, 8, 5)
  • Professor Ibbeton - has some intellectual coherence but in reality a seemingly perfect agreement often conceals a more ragged mixture of agreement, disagreement and no thought given (6, 2, 4, 6)
  • series of telegrams "will you sell us BHP? T lowest cash price" "lowest cash price for BHP £900" "we agree to buy for £900 asked by you" (6, 1, 5, 5)
  • trasmission of wine price list to persons likely to order NOT an offer (8, 3, 1, 5)
