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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

There are some characteristics of people that are the same the world over. I'm training this week in Saudi Arabia (so my week is Sunday to Wednesday) and - I admit - I was in some nervousness of my first trip to the middle east. But - what lovely, personable people and a great bunch of keen Perl learners. We often think we live in a charmed world of with the people we train, and it extends to Dharan too.

Even the sounds here are like home - the sound of aircraft flying close overhead from time to time, and just like at home the room can get very hot in summer, which it is. But not everything's identical. When I trained on the Isle of Skye, I had fiddle practise in the next room to contend with. Here, a gentle middle eastern music drifted in through the doorway to set the scene.
