I’ve just finished the second day of teaching in Estonia…
I didn’t have any database issues today, which was a relief. Everything went according to plan, but it was a struggle to get all the information across in the time. I think I’ve got more than 13 hours of material and only 12 hours to present [...]
I’ve just completed day 1 of my PL/SQL workshop in Estonia. The first few minutes proved especially eventful!
When I did my workshop in Copenhagen, I had a lot of trouble with the projector. This morning I plugged the projector into my laptop and all was well. I even made a joke about how well it [...]
I’ll be in Estonia on the 3rd & 4th of June doing a PL/SQL seminar. I’m guessing the details will be available here in the next day or two.
Cheers
Tim…
PS. If I get any more dates I’m printing a “World Tour” T shirt.
I mentioned in a previous post I had a days sightseeing before I started my workshop. Copenhagen is a really cool place. I would definitely like to visit again.
Regarding the workshop, I think it went really well. The people were very friendly and interacted a lot. It’s hard work presenting for 12+ hours, but it’s [...]
I’ve got a single day to do Copenhagen before I have to start working tomorrow. The local tourist office recommended a 3 hour route round the city, which I did this morning. I’m going to spend this afternoon checking out some of the stuff off the main route.
So far the weather has been bright, but [...]
I’m home now and I’ve had some time to reflect on the whole Vienna experience…
I enjoyed the teaching, and was surprised how relaxed I felt. I expected to get nervous, but felt really calm through it all. It’s very difficult to get 13 hours of material across in 2 days. I know it’s not practical, [...]
I’ve got another morning of sightseeing, then I fly home this afternoon.
I’m going to write a post summing up my Vienna experience, but for now all I will say is I love Vienna. I spent the whole day walking round checking out the center of the city. Later in the day my dodgy knee felt [...]
I’ve just finished my second day of teaching Oracle PL/SQL Tuning. I’m now switching into holiday mode for a couple of days before returning to the UK.
Everything went well, but I’m sure over the next couple of days I’ll start to think about things I’ll do differently next time. It will be interesting to see [...]
It’s the night before the first day of my Oracle PL/SQL Tuning workshop in Vienna. The flights were on time and pretty straight forward. I had a two hour stay at Dusseldorf airport, which was quite pleasant.
I’ve not seen much of Austria yet, but I can say it has a fantastic infrastructure. Everything looks so [...]
