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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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))
My projector has a photo-id

Have you ever tried reading a serial number sticker and wondered whether it's an S or a 5, a 0 or an O, a 1 or an I, a B or an 8? So have I! Most recently just an hour or two back when I was calling in to report our BenQ projector faulty (again!) and we went through the usual part number, serial number, phone number, postcode game and tried to find part and serial numbers their system would take. Actually, I think the letter identification business is a daily grind to them. "The text is very small - hard for me to read" I said. "Yes, we know" came a resigned, friendly voice.

In the end, my contact suggested that I email him a picture of the label. Now ... being an oldie who's used to film cameras, fuzzy focus at less that 3 feet, macro lenses and all the rest, I doubted whether I would be able to get him a readable image. But - my goodness - hasn't digital photography come forward?
