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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

Melksham to London Coach Service


There's a daily coach service from Melksham to London and if you're going to Heathrow Airport at about the time it runs (or if you're coming from Heathrow) it's the most practical way to make the journey.

From London Victoria 18:00
From London Heathrow 18:45
Arrive Melksham 21:05

From Melksham at 07:45
Arrives London Heathrow 10:15
Arrives London Victoria 11:15


Route is National Express 402, and it runs 7 days a week. It also serves Devizes, Marlborough and Newbury between Melksham and London, and Trowbridge, Westbury and Frome beyond Melksham.

If you're going to be staying at Well House Manor in Melksham, please let us know that you're arriving on the coach and we'll meet you in the Market Place.





Alternative routes to London (Paddington station) from Melksham include the train (06:40, 07:17 and 19:47, Monday to Friday, different times Saturday and Sunday, change at Westbury or Swindon). The return train leaves from London at 17:30 (Monday to Friday), change at Swindon.

You can also travel via Chippenham, using the local bus or a taxi to there, then either a train or the 403 National Express Coach.
