I'm in Liverpool for a three day Python course - if October was the month of Perl then November looks set to be the month of Python
There's a certain friendlyness about Liverpool - it's very much one of those cities where, I feel, the people make the place. A cheery checkin last night, and a friendly banter with the breakfast staff this morning. And when I got to near the place I'm training (which is not well marked as it's an R&D centre rather than a public interface), the smokers standing outside the next building cheerfully directed me. Even the young lady who brought the coffee trolley around was chatty ... and seeing all the computers wanted to chat about her new broadband connection.
As well as local delegates, my group of 8 includes a Frenchman, a Russian and a Canadian. But as well as Liverpudlians being friendly and welcoming, Python course delegates are almost inevitably friendly and welcoming too - and this group is no exception. So this is going to be a really fun course that I'm enjoying already.
