I must commend your excellent service. I ordered a Lego NXT kit at 13.40 yesterday and it arrived at 12.05pm today. That’s Somerset to Aberdeenshire in about 22-1/2 hours!

I ordered a Third Hand, Solarspeeder 2 kit and Photopopper Photovore kit. I'm still waiting for delivery of the Third Hand. The Solarspeeder 2 and Photopopper Photovore were fairly straightforward to assemble. The Solarspeeder 2 needs to be on a slight downward slope in bright sunlight to be self-propelled. The Photopopper Photovore needs a better method than some heat-shrink tubing attached to the two motor shafts to propel itself on a level surface. The motors on both 'robots' work as expected in sunlight, but the details of converting their rotation to forward motion of the 'robots' need some redesign.
