{{a|drafting|}}For pompouser types, | {{a|drafting|}}For pompouser types, “[[best endeavours]]” {{cite|Rhodia International Holdings Ltd |Huntsmann International|2007|EWHC 292 (Comm)|}} held that “''reasonable'' endeavours” requires [[Clapham omnibus|the person on the Clapham omnibus]] only “endeavour” down a ''single'' avenue of reasonableness. That having resulted in a dead-end, there is no further cause to wander up and down thoroughfares, however reasonable they may in the abstract be, to discharge one’s obligation. | ||
By contrast a “[[best endeavours]]” obligation requires the [[Clapham omnibus|fabled bus passenger]] to alight and go down ''every one'' of the avenues that seems reasonable, before stuffing that for a game of soldiers, to exhaust the lot of them. | |||
“[[All reasonable endeavours]]” on this logic, is the same as “best endeavours”. It requires money down in the pursuit of real and active, reasonable, effort. | |||
