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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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, Wiltshire. Town Crier Competition, 2009

"Coming to Melksham on 25th April 2009 ... Melksham's 1st Town Crier Competition - 30 criers and escorts in a cavalcade of sound and colour"

Taking place in the Market Place - just five minutes walk from our hotel [about and bookings] - at 11 a.m. and 2.30 p.m.

Peter Dauncey, our Town Crier, and his Escort pride themselves as being Ambassadors of Goodwill ... and indeed we're very grateful for their support at many events ranging from the Santa trip on the train through the opening of Lidl!

The competition should be great fun ... I know we'll be going along. Other Melksham Diary dates are here - ranging from the local drama group's pantomime through open gardens to business meetings and training courses.
