Just ******* Google it

"Can you tell me the email address of the butterfly expert Mr Jxxxx Bxxxxxxx?"

"What is the history of the bridge over the river Avon In Malmesbury"

"Please supply me with details of the Xxxxxx retirement home in Bromham"

Some of the recent requests that I've received in my email, along with the more regular ones that I expect to get on Open Source programming, local train services, and hotels. I came across this site - here - this morning, and it brought a wry smile to my face. Actually, I'll continue to answer such questions as the ones above as I receive them, the the best of my ability in a minute of two - a favour done is a piece of networking and can be returned a thousand times over. But I will continue to refuse, as I did earlier this week, to take several hours to travel our of the county and tramp around a churchyard looking for a grave. I'm sure the local vicar is much more qualified to do that sort of thing.

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.
