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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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))

I can offer you support .... but only very heavily qualified.  Lisp really isn't one of the languages that I'm familiar with, I'm afraid, so you'll do better with technical questions on it elsewhere.  Mind you, it's a long time since I wrote a syntax analyser or interpreter (I've never done a complete compiler myself) so you may come up with some intresting questions that stretch me back into the past.

Strong recommendation - as you're new to both Lisp and compiler writing, start with books or longer on line articles and pracise on some simple syntax analyses first.  That will get you up to speed on basic principles.   Please don't try to do the whole thing through question and answer sessions here, as the forum medium is great for nailing the occasional awkward questions, but poor at handling the marathon tutorial requiments.
