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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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))
Trowbridge - Wiltshire's County Town

[imgl=trojail]Trowbridge old Jail[/img]Trowbridge is only 6 miles from our Melksham training centre and Hotel. Although it's the country town of Wiltshire, it's not grown anything like as much as Salisbury or Swindon and these days it's a typical Wiltshire town with a variety of residential and light industrial areas. See also Trowbridgetrain.

[imgr=trowbridge2]The Town hall and The Isaac Pitman[/img]Shorthand (also known as Phonography) was invented by Isaac Pitman, who was born in Trowbridge in 1813 and lived in various places in the town until 1831. Today, his contribution is celebrated in the town through several memorial plaques - and also by the JD Wetherspoon's pub known as the "Isaac Pitman", and situated in the old Market House. If we're in Trowbridge and want a quick and very reasonably priced meal, "The Pitman"'s often our choice.
