I've decided to stop numbering the tips as I cannot count that high.

Newest one is
Open v Closed Class Discretionary Trusts Open v Closed Class Discretionary Trusts

 

I'll help you out Terry because you provide some good advice here.

After 100 comes 101 then 102 then 103 then 104 then 105. You can see I just continue numbering in the same format as counting 1 to 10 but now have the 100 in front. Once you get to 199 then you start with the 200's. PM me if you need any help but I think you know this already so it would be great to keep up your numbering system to make things easier to reference.
