For Christmas 2013 Mrs Fogg got me the Rail Race kit where you can build designs for ball bearings to race round (yeh I know how lucky was I). This had a difficulty of 2 out of 10 and was for 10 years and upwards. The web reviews of it were awful (it’s too difficult, the beatings fall off all the time, etc.)

This year I decided to try and build it from the terrible instructions and after 5 hours of deliberation manage to get a ball bearing to go round a track once without falling off. Next stop the bin (sorry).
