I may have found a hack to cure the problem

One of the recent changes was to default to using python3 for the background data gathering instead of python2

I changed  
home/pi/.node-red/node\_modules/node-red-node-pi-sense-hat/sensehat  
to just use python2 again and it seems to have made it work again
