Or if you'd bought Nick Bluetooth you could have walked away with it :)

I did consider going by the quantity of each part, but I think the way I did
it encouraged using more different parts rather than relying on lots of a
particular one. Of course, you did both, but once I'd set the rules and the
competition was on I thought it would be unfair to revise them. I'll
probably revise them for next time though, in many new and interesting ways ;)

I have no idea what'll be in the next parts list, but I am looking at my
son's Duplo collection with a raised eyebrow.

Cheers,
Allister
