<p>There is a great deal that I want to tell you about our
hotel and courses but Ican't fit it all on one page so I'll
make it scroll.</p>

<p class=midsection>Well House Consultants was established
in 1996 and it was
originally a contract training company. However, very soon we
got requests for Perl course and ... as they say ... we never
looked back.<br /><br />
Java course followed in 1997 and then advanced Perl courses.
By 2000, contract programming had faded out as we were only
presenting our own courses - no time to do anything else.
<br /><br />
The long story over a few years continues with the addition
of subjects such as Tcl, MySQL, Python, C, C++ and most
recently Ruby. Oh - we do some Tomcat and Linux courses too,
and run a hotel in our spare time</p>

<p>So there you have the story ....</p>
