This is what my super 7 year programmer daughter made today. I am mostly reduced to the “Can you find the music of God Save The Queen?” support role.

I love the medal ceremony with 4th place crying in the corner.

I need to write my own version of this article sometime. (Whether I will is another matter!) The realisation that paying more for better quality products saved me money was quite a revelation.
