Yes I did! I can’t take credit for the design of the fidget but I edited it to add the text and the QR code. It’s hopefully something a little fun and entertaining that will stay on someone’s desk a little longer than a leaflet!

Hard at work getting the vote out @bcu-ucu.bsky.social. The 'Join @ucu.org.uk' fidget toys have been really popular on our walkarounds. A new batch ready to go out tomorrow. There's still time to join if you want to have your voice heard in our ballot!

If you’re struggling to concentrate with the possibility of compulsory redundancies not being off the table may I suggest a stylish ‘Join UCU’ fidget toy. Comes with solidarity, a positive outlook for the future of higher education, and a really satisfying clicking sound. @bcu-ucu.bsky.social

I was super lucky to win a #RoboPad kit from @blayzetech.bsky.social in the #SMRRF2024 raffle last month. Not yet designed my own bot, but managed to print and assemble a great design from Printables. The eight-year old Robot Wars obsessive in me is so happy!
