That sample answer was posted in error a year ago, and all gcd students have had the correct one where prop. Estoppel is identified as the issue. I don't know where you got the old mistaken one, but there you go.

Hi Im going on sample answer I have from Griffith, it identifes the question as promissory and goes on into High trees, cullen v cullen etc. If the question today referred to the son taking his name of the local authority housing list or any other form of detriment based on his father's assurances then it is very similar to Q4 April 2008, Assurance is akin to a promise. I didnt do the estoppel question skipped it for certainties instead. I would need the question in front of me, but again, the griffith sample answer to Q4 april 2008 is promissory, if you can say with certainty that the question in the exam was very similar then this may be the case. Remember you will still get marks for identifying estoppel, and as property involved, would fall under the Dillwyn v Lllewellyn form. N.B even the judiciary conflate concepts of promissory and proprietary. Sorry If ive confused you.. confused myself now! Post mortems...no good shall come of them!!!
