Nina, Simon,

Cool Components <http://www.coolcomponents.co.uk> are UK based and
sell an Arduino
Starter Kit<http://www.coolcomponents.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=50&products_id=240>,
as well as other shields and accessories. Please note that this starter kit
differes from the one Simon linked to.

SKPang <http://www.skpang.co.uk> are also UK based and have a range of
Arduino products<http://www.skpang.co.uk/catalog/index.php?cPath=140&osCsid=d6a19564f7eee03ab6695096d4bd976b>
.

The official Arduino site <http://arduino.cc> has some helpful information
for getting started <http://arduino.cc/en/Guide/HomePage>.

The Makezine <http://www.makezine.com/> Arduino
archive<http://blog.makezine.com/archive/arduino/>may also be of
interest.

Thanks

Martin
