You do not just fly - that is just part of the journey

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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

Q - "Where did you go on holiday last year?"
A - "Spain"
Q - "How did you get to where you were going?"
A - "We flew"

A converstion I have often held with delegates on our "Tomcat Course" ... and I go on to point out that they didn't JUST fly - there were all sorts of other transportations involved too. And so it is with Tomcat. You need Java, you need an opersting system, you probably want other associated software such as Apache httpd as well ...

It's very rare that you can walk from your starting point to your plane, and from your plane to your destination, so the "we flew" statement is just the headline.

We travelled to the USA yesterday - "we flew" - but really we did a lot more. The flying wasn't even the majority of the time!

• Car from home to Well House Manor
• Walk to Market Square, Melksham
• National Express Coach to Heathrow
• A great deal of walking, escalators, travellators
• Aircraft to Dulles Airport, Washington
• Transfer Shuttle to customs and arrivals
• Walk to bus stand
• Metro bus 5A to Rosslyn
• Escalators to platform
• Blue Line Washington Metro to Pentagon City
• Walk to hotel

Our Tomcat course isn't just Tomcat. We include the Apache http server, and can also cover various Linux topics too. We have a separate set of Java programming courses.

Don't you just love the variety!

Destination - at the very end of the journey, a family gathering with members from right across the USA as well as us
