Greenacres, a firm of estate agents, decides to give its image a face-lift by refurbishing its reception area. Greenacres places the contract with a local company, Office Style Ltd, which agrees to supply the following items:
(a) six easy chairs and matching coffee table selected from Office Style's existing stock by Greenacres' senior partner;
(b) a new carpet which has to be ordered direct from the manufacturer;
(c) a set of free-standing display units, already in stock, which Office Style agrees to adapt to hold the particulars of houses for sale.
The night before the refitting is due to take place, Office Style's warehouse, containing all the items for the Greenacres job, is completely destroyed by fire.
