19. Enforcement

 

We will use our discretion in deciding when to enforce these Conditions.  The nature and complexity of British Polo Day Event operations means that we are unlikely to enforce these Conditions in every instance in which there is a breach.  However, notwithstanding this we nonetheless reserve the right to enforce (without limitation whether by taking practical steps and/or bringing legal proceedings) in every instance where we deem it appropriate.  No failure or delay to enforce, or decision by us not to enforce, should be construed as a waiver of our right to do so.

 

20. Law

 

These Conditions shall be governed by the laws of England and Wales.
