I made another thing with my @pimoroni.com Galactic Unicorn, this time for Christmas.
Produced after several freezes followed by reflashing of firmware and starting programming all over again plus a lot of swearing at Thonny.
But I quite like the result anyway.

Once again, Oxford University Press has shown with its Word of the Year that it needs to check the definition of the word 'word'. (It says 'rage bait' is one word when used as a hyphenated compound phrase, which it never is.)
