From somewhere Irma has produced a tiny robot-like figure in a space suit that has a long extension lead coming out of its back and ending in a USB plug. The lead is stiff enough that you can plug the robot into your laptop and bend the cable so that, when the robot lights up (as indeed it will), it serves as a small light.

The only time I tried it blinded me, or at least made looking at the screen almost impossible.

I expect we bought it in Dubai.
