Lol, no I didn't think so either. I know from a tutor that I don't really have to discuss if the original contract was valid as it clearly is and the computing company are agreeing to pay something (so it is likely there was consideration - I think!) they just haven't agreed on how much, don't see how I can make the essay anywhere near 7 pages long?
If its any help, although it is a contract question it is for a module called Writing Skills, don't know if that is supposed to make a difference my answer
Maybe I should just give up now?!!
