For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
Melksham Train Service

HELP!

This one could have a very noticable effect on our business ... and on YOUR travel plans to come to us on training courses.

First Great Western are withdrawing 3 out of 5 of our daily trains as from December, leaving  a morning service to Melksham at 06:20 from Swindon which is far too early for courses, and a service back at about 19:30 which is far too late.  

They tell us that the service level is set by the Department for Transport, but that they have scope to change the timing if it fits in with their other services.

I would really appreciate it if you could visit this link and make your inputs - from a training course viewpoint, the option of a train from Swindon at around 08:20 returning at around 17:00 is an ideal once.

Thanks!

Graham

Many thanks to those of you who have followed up / looked at this issue via this thread, the archive, and other flags.  A government consultation last spring got 8 responses ... but we've managed to get at least 5 times that in to them this time - and that's just ones that I know of.
