Subject: High Court of Australia - no breach in "garage sale" case

On a lighter note, I had a mini-competition in my Torts class this year to see who could come up with torts cases the name of which tells you something about the facts of the case. As I recall two classic examples were Burnie Port Authority v General Jones (involves a fire) and Kars v Kars (a motor vehicle negligence case). I also used this case (which we discussed when it was at the SA Full Court level). Any other ideas for similar cases?

Swindle v Harrison (breach of fiduciary duty)
