Liverpool City Council v Irwin

"The truth is that the court .... decides this question in accordance with what seems to be just or reasonable in its eyes. The judge finds in himself the criterion of what is reasonable. The court is in this sense making a contract for the parties - though it is almost blasphemy to say so." (Lord Wright of Durley, Legal Essays and Addresses (1939), p259.)
