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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

I live in a beautiful country and a beautiful area of that country. I've appreciated it for many years and always hankered after more time to explore ... I use to dream of writing a series of books "Within about an hour" which would give me the opportunity to look around further in our own locale, exploring hidden places off the beaten track that could be reached within an elastic 60 minutes.

With customers visiting us on training courses in Melksham, and with our new content management system to help, I've been able to take a whole fistful of pictures this Spring and document them ... start in our home town of Melksham and explore from there. Last Wednesday, it was a great pleasure to walk in the evening with a could of fit customers along the canal and stop at a pub for a meal and a pint. Thank you, Lisa, for driving out to collect the three of us after your evening meeting!

This weekend, we've ventured ever so slightly further afield in the last 36 hours, and I would like to share some pictures with you. These aren't, realistically, places you would make in the evening after a course but come down a day earlier, or stop into the weekend that follows, and you'll find they're almost on the doorstep.



Clevedon - on the coast just beyond Bristol





On "The Levels" - the flat ground in North and mid Somerset





Towards the top of the valley above the Cheddar Gorge


And I have 00s more snaps too .... see our touring pages.
