BBC Basic, 6502 Assembler ? or you could try Z80 assembler

Bump up your SQL skills and then play with Integration Services (DTS). It's great, you get to play with little boxes and theres tons of different ones and you get to join them up with little lines that you drag everywhere and then they all go pretty colours when you run it.

And the kicker is that it pays really well.

Update:

Had a change of mind on Haskell (can't teach an old dog new tricks etc) and downloaded Python and bought a Python book (thanks for the recommendation NickFitz!).

Python looks incredibly high level. But I won't start the back-in-my day spiel.
