### Member of the week

This time the member of the week award goes to [Richard Wenner](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/u/dicktonyboy/) from [Cardiff](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/community/cardiff/) who has been super active ever since. After getting a good momentum in the local area, he has been working on creating resources for the global community too. Most of you would have been familiar with his voice during the [video tutorials](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBbCZMcG1e0&list=PLM8eOeiKY7JVQ3Z_4VP4uZBSRUtOqYv1A) and the simplicity with which he explains everything. Congratulations Richard :)

Congrats everyone! enjoy the festive week ahead and looking forward to seeing more such activities in 2017 🎉
