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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

I remember at school, during French dictation, trying to write the complex word "viagule" which the teacher seemed to be talking about all the time. And loosing so many marks, because it turned out to be the french for a comma ,,,,, ....

Yesterday, I was talking about the & character - the Ampersand - here in Germany, and we paused for a couple of minutes to sort out just what it's called here. It's the "Mechant's And" or the Kaufmannsund - and I confirm that I learn something new every day.

Should I have feared needing to train in Germany (in German?). No - as I rode in the German taxi back to the hotel last night, I was with delegates from South Africa, Spain and Italy ... truly, the world of Open Source is now multinational, and I feel at comfort almost anywhere.
