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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

A lovely day out in Minehead yesterday ... an excursion by train from Westbury, organised by The Railway Children Charity, on a train loaned free of charge by First Great Western for the day, track access costs waived by Network Rail and by the West Somerset Railway, time given for free by all the staff concerned, sponsorship of the buffet and raffles by various people / companies - meant that all the money taken goes to the charity without an initial admin layer.


Minehead is a lovely town to choose as the destination for such an excursion, and I have returned with too many lovely pictures to do them all justice, and so many happy memories that I'm looking to record just a few of them here and on other pages before I hit this week's Python and PHP courses.


"Minehead Marauder" - ah - the name of the special train! I have posted some slightly more rail related pictures here
