Heya Ceri,

Personally i like the sect1 and sect2 better, since they are more clear 
for me that a section starts and ends, section and section could give 
confusion if not properly indented...

So, i prefer sect1 and sect2, if you think section and section are more 
clear, make sure the rules about indenting are 100% followed or things 
might get confusing :)

Cheers!
