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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

Occasional visitors to Melksham often ask us how long it will take to get here ... and we're happy to provide estimates. I have traveled a very great deal within the UK, and based on distances, speeds, and road conditions in most areas I can come up with some reasonable guesses. Alas - it seems that at times visitors who don't ask underestimate how long they'll need, and when someone else who's not as old / well traveled answers the phone for us, they may find it harder to estimate.

So - taking the bull by the horns - I've worked out my estimate of the drive time from each of the UK's postcode areas - and from airports and ferry ports too - and added it (initially) to the demonstration area of our web site - [Journey times and weather in Melksham].

Driving times are very personal, and very unpredictable. Are you a fast driver, or a slow one? Do you like to take country routes? How often do you stop for a break? And they depend on road conditions too. I'll be very interested to look back over time at these figures and see how much they vary - and I'll be very interested in feedback from other people's personal experiences too!


Oh - people often ask about the weather, so I've added in the BBC's feed of that to the page too.




Addition - 28th August 2010. People often ask about the climate too - preparing for a trip several months ahead - so I've added a page of general climate / weather stats [here].
