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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

Is it just the first flush of enthusiasm that has me writing on a Sunday?

Probably not! Although I was never a diarist in the days BC (Before Computers), I've felt comfortable sitting down and typing thoughts - well - for the last xx years, and I don't see why I won't carry on doing so for another xx years. The tools, the way of doing it changes and the audience ability of what I write might, but I don't foresee myself stopping, just like I don't foresee myself stopping working - maybe ease off a bit in future years but it's my hobby, too.

13:00, Sunday. One training module (Technology overview, CVS, SOAP and Cocoon - what an odd combination) completed this morning. Visitors due in an hour for assistance in recovery of data from a hard drive, also social. 12 machines to be prepped for the coming 3 day course - Java Deployment, tailored, in Oxford.

No - I don't see the flush of enthusiasm fading. I do see that there will be times when I don't post for a few days - during on site courses, for example, and I think I'll have better things to do when I'm GeekCruising in October. But then ... I expect I'll come back with a lot of interesting material.

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
