Issue #269 - BASIC

Welcome to Friday!

We hope you’ve had a fabulous week; we know we have!

This edition of the Raspberry Pi Weekly is jam-packed full of so much Pi goodness that you’ll need at least two cups of tea to get through it. So put the kettle on, find your favourite chair, and get stuck into the wonderfulness below.

Have a great weekend, and we’ll see you next Friday!

Peace,

Alex
