"That's a lovely piece of cloth". What an unexpected comment from the office and facilities gent who was helping me move my laptops from the loading bay to the boardroom. There's so much we view, but don't see, isn't there? Raymond, who's always on hand when I run courses at this Central Glasgow location, used to be a supervisor in the linen industry up the Clyde valley from here. He still looks at cloth and materials with a professional's eye; with the industry in which he used to work no longer in the area, he now undertakes a daily long commute from his cottage set high in the southern upland hills and a long way from the City.

"Lest I forget" ... behind every person I come into contact with is a personality, likes, dislikes and a full and often interesting life. I'm often baffled when I see people being rude and arrogant with others and giving them a hard time; they're closing the door on someone who could be a good friend and contact, and I'll bet THEY wouldn't like to be treated in that way.

It's REALLY easy to add a little PHP
Behind every face is a person and a story
Queues and barrel rolls in Perl
And the staff put the icing on the cake
Familiar names, close to home
If its Sunday, it must be the Norland
Perl - its up to YOU to check your file opened

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.
