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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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))
Seeing the bricks for the trees

"The Old Manor" was a secluded house, set amongst trees that had become overgrown with time. In a few areas, what could only be described as a jungle comprising both beautiful classic trees and fast-growing pines had taken over and was making the property dark and gloomy, and wasn't best pleasing some of the neighbours either.

Although it's only just a week since we took over, we've already had a team pruning back some trees, and taking out a handful completely - no more than a few percent of the timber has gone, but the difference is astonishing.

"Well House Manor" in all its glory:
