[Microbit-Python] No access to the web site

[Nicholas H.Tollervey]

Hi Jeff,

Aha! I believe you're among friends here ~ we're all young at heart no
matter what our alleged "real" age is supposed to be. ;-)

You've obviously signed up to the mailing list. Please feel free to ask
questions. Don't worry "is my question stupid?", we'd love to know what
the bumps and sticking points are for MicroPython on the micro:bit.

In terms of stuff to read, check out the tutorials in our documentation
found here:

https://microbit-micropython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

This should give you a good idea of what the device can do and how to
make it do interesting stuff with grandchildren. All feedback is most
welcome!

There's also all the stuff on the official BBC website at microbit.co.uk
(although that's not Python specific).

Happy to help and best of luck!

N.
