"I've got to write my blog when I get to my hotel tonight". So said I to the group that I'm teaching Tomcat configuration and deployment to here in Caerphilly today and tomorrow. "Shall I make it positive or a bit grouchy?" I continued. "Oh - positive" was the reply. "And shall I make it technical or no". "No" say they. So here we are, a positive and non-technical blog for the folks at Caerphilly County Borough Council (who also said they were very happy for me to drop their name in!).

I'm in Wales, and it's beautiful - so it's really not very hard to come up with something positive and something non-technical. The beauty of the valleys struck me as I drove in this morning, and this evening I stretched my legs walking into the town centre



Caerphilly Castle - one of those days that I can let a picture paint a thousand words. Would you like another thousand?



The low, bright autumn light over the moat, the ancient and modern mixing, may not be to everyone's taste, but I was sure happy to snap away.

There's a beauty to Wales that's more than landscape deep, too. I always find it friendly - remarkably friendly. The chap I walk by in the shopping centre remarks how nicely it's turned out today. The hotel receptionist goes out of her way to helpfully direct me int town. And my friends, old friends and new friends on the course up the road at Ystrad Mynach make my work so much fun. "Business or pleasure?" asks the hotel's check-in form. Can I tick both, please?
