You act for George Lamb, whose cousin, Tony Doyle, died suddenly last week. George shows you a copy of Tony's validly executed will (below). He says:

'It's an honour to be asked to administer Tony's estate, but I've never been a trustee before and I'm a bit worried about what it involves. I'm self-employed and work as a builder full time. I know his daughters well - they want to go into business and higher education. They are also very independent - they've left home already.'
