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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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



Last summer and autumn, we had a great deal of tree work done at Well House Manor - catching up on years of neglect, clearing leylandia that had become a source of friction between the previous owner and her neighbours, and clearing the way for an improved entrance, driveway and parking. In the end, only one mature deciduous tree was lost - and that was a very old and mis-shapen specimen that would have only lasted another few years.

One of the other trees, close to the new driveway, would be fine (we were assured). However, this spring all other trees came into leaf and it remained bare. Look at the left of the picture above, taken early in May, and you'll see what I mean.

But I'm happy to report that in the last week or two, it's sprung back to life.

Another week, and we'll be celebrating a year of owning "Well House Manor". What a long way we have come in that time!
