This has been our most sucessful kit sold to date - the prize is growing still!  We have had to repack extra kits!

CHALLENGE 6 ...

Here is our latest kit.  The photo is definitely  not as exciting as the real product.  We have thrown a little twist into this challenge - so please read your rules properly ...
