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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

I've been rather interested to notice a number of QR codes turn up recently in which there's an icon representing the site. Turns out not to be part of the standard library we use, but achievable through a handful of sites. Here are some "marketing" QR code:



The redundancy within the code is reduced / the size of the code may need to be larger, but it's quite neat. I'm continuing to study the subject / look for a library that I can use within our website using existing server setups - and certainly I'll be doing demos for people on our courses even though I've nothing in an openly publishable form yet.
