    3.      Lee promises to buy land from Harry. The contract provides: ‘the vendor (seller) can terminate the contract if the purchaser does not complete the purchase by the due date’. Lee has difficulty in raising the necessary finance by the due date. The day before the due date, Lee speaksto Harry’s solicitor and tells him his inability to raise the finance by the due date.
    Lee, however, advises the solicitor that the finance can be available within seven daysafter the due date and he can complete the purchase with Harry then. The solicitor says, “I think that would be all right but I will have to get instructions from the vendor”.
     
    Harry terminates the sale contract for non-payment three days after the due date. He instructs his solicitor to write to Lee about the termination of the contract. Lee is furious. He argues that Harry has no right to terminate the contract because of the representation made by Harry’s solicitor.
     
    Can Lee sue Harry for breach of contract? Does the representation made by Harry’s solicitor amount to promissory estoppel?
