Where parties to an oral tenancy in Hong Kong expressly stipulate domestic user, that term will be treated as a condition subsequent giving the landlord a right of re-entry; here the defendant committed a continuing breach by carrying on business in the flat, the plaintiff's rent demand did not amount to waiver because the breach was continuing, and equitable relief was refused because the defendant's breach was flagrant and persistent.
