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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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))
Lewis, Harris, Benbecula, North and South Uist and Barra

The Outer Hebrides are a series of beautiful, low lying islands set off the coast of Scotland, sparsely populated but with a rich history and a great deal to see. The largest town of Stornoway is reached by ferry from Ullapool - see pictures on our Inverness page.

You'll hear Gaellic spoken in the Hebrides, as well as English, and the larger places are named in both languages - Stornoway is Steòrnabhagh and the Isle of Lewis is Eliean Leòdhais. I was priviledged to give a PHP course on the Isle of Skye a few years ago to a team from SMO (Sabhal Mòr Ostaig) who have set up and maintain a dictionary and a Thesarus of the dialects of Gaellic online - see the Autumn, 2001 issue of our "Of Course" newsletter.
