The court declined to vary the costs order nisi because the plaintiffs' unsuccessful delay allegation formed necessary background to the single cause of action (repudiation by transfer of the Lots), was not a distinct separable event justifying a costs reduction, and it was not unreasonable or improper to have advanced it; accordingly costs follow the event and the costs order nisi is made absolute.
