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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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))
What would the extra trains from Melksham mean to your journey?

I have been asked what travel opportunities from Melksham the proposed additional service could provide. Using the times now published n the First Great Western site, I offer you the following (provisional?) departures from Melksham, Mondays to Fridays except bank holidays on and from Monday 9th December. I have added return journeys at the bottom

On Saturday it is proposed to run a similar number of trains, but the times will differ. On Sunday, there will be about half the trains with only a single train each way in the morning.

[[Note - see [here] if your browser cuts off the right hand side of the table. A service that's too wide to display on a single blog post is a new problem to me ;-) ]]

Footnote added later. The format above was an experiment - to see if this is a good way to present the timetable data for Melksham. Early indications is that it is "unreadable" to others, and I'll be looking for an alternative presentation. Research can be just as important in saying what not to do as in what to do! I'm leaving the post here just incase anyone else has a mind like mine that finds it useful!

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.
