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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

Friday afternoon ... and a week in which a lot has happened comes to an end. A raft of pictures that have been taken to be shared, but alas have not yet been shared ....

A week long Perl Programming course ...


Breakfast for 33 (yes, that's thirty three!) at Well House Manor this morning ...


Seeing the traffic jamming the centre of Melksham this week, and thinking forward to what it might be like on 10 years time, when the town has grown by 50% ...


Standing in on the top of one of the most exposed buildings in Melksham as dawn broke, to take a picture of the only train that calls at Melksham during daylight hours ...


Explaining Perl's "Read from" operator, and how it handles files and STDIN.


At a quarter past five this morning ... walking past the bus stop on the way in to work ...


Spring, and crocuses push up through our gravel path


An archway at Well House Manor ...


And there's so much else not recorded in pictures too. A hardware failure on one of our dedicated servers located in a network centre in Germany, and getting that fixed. Response problems due to excess activity on our main server. "Snagging" at Well House Manor - that thankless but necessary task of going around and finding places where we could and should improve the product. And - always a thrill - showing new potential hotel customers around, and talking with new potential training course customers and having them enthused - yes, this is the product for me.

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
