    Sorry I didn't realise that the court isn't interested whether the parties have acted reasonably or not.
    In this case the entire dispute is regarding whether OP has acted reasonably or not.
    A good article on unreasonable behaviour and resulting cost orders

    OP can ask, but that's going to be a difficult one, unless they can prove he's doing this before.

    Once again, at the discretion of the judge, which I feel may not be exercised in this particular situation.
