Oops, I forgot that I need to break out of the loop when the current item is the string "STOP". Help me add that code!

I think this is a syntax issue but can't seem to find it?

breaks.py 
def loopy(items):

     for item in items:

        if item == 'STOP':
            break
        else:
            print(item)

    # Code goes here

It looks OK to me, so I pasted it in and it passes task 2 of the challenge.

It won't pass task 1, but the objective for that one is different (and simpler).
