This is now an archive web site. Some is still relevant as at February 2026 but some is purely of historic interest.
Lisa and I (Graham) are now fully retired from IT training.We have made many friends over 30 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Apache, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are out of date, but with upward compatability some examples remain operational and relevant. You are welcome to make use of them "as seen", at your own risk. We 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 remain active, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to do things!
I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here)) |

What have iTime, honeytrapagency and domain listing center got in common? (written 2008-09-12)
There are so many scams and dubious schemes "out there", and from time to time some of them come enough to my personal attention (by trying to scam me usually!) that I make comment about them on our web site. And, perhaps not surprisingly, I get a great deal of feedback, mostly by email or sometimes - as this morning - in the post. Which has encouraged me to add some updates to some of the stories and provide fresh links here.
Let's see - who has tried to scam me? [[ The links are all 'safe' - they're to other pages on our own site! ]]

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. So much so, and it's so long ago
that we are retired
