Melksham - a town of some remarkable people

For 2021 - online Python 3 training - see ((here)).

Our plans were to retire in summer 2020 and see the world, but Coronavirus has lead us into a lot of lockdown programming in Python 3 and PHP 7.
We can now offer tailored online training - small groups, real tutors - works really well for groups of 4 to 14 delegates. Anywhere in the world; course language English.

Please ask about private 'maintenance' training for Python 2, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, etc.

There are some remarkable people in Melksham, people who live and / or work in the town and put a great deal of time and effort into positive endeavours for the town. And it's good to see them recognised in nominations for Melksham's "Person of the year 2012" in the Melksham Independent News.

It's a strong field this year - no fewer that 14 nominations. I know (and am honoured to occasionally help alongside) a handful of them - and I would happily vote for ANY of that handful. You can read about it in the Melksham Independent News.

We love living in Melksham, and welcoming people to the town. These nominations are the tip of an iceberg of lovely people - friends, colleagues, officials and contacts who make it such a friendly place, and who help - in both visible and invisible ways - to support the town as it currently is, and to move the town positively forward so that it's going to be as good a place to live, visit, trade and work in the future as it currently is - if not better.

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
