[Bradford] Python workshop

[Bernard Czenkusz]

Hi - you mentioned people at Agile Yorkshire may be interested.

If you haven't spoken to them, maybe now is the time - 20 of the 25
places have been filled already, (I'm actually surprised at the demand)
- so anyone who wants to get in needs to do so quickly.

Cheers

    Bernie
