understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.

Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.

My sister lives in a little place called Yanchep, in W Australia, at 6 Nautical Court. A friend in Wirksworth, the small town in Derbyshire where I live, had a relative in W Australia. Her address? 7 Nautical Court, Yanchep! It turned out that she and my sister were celebrating their Golden Weddings one day apart, and that both had 6 children. They had recently had a trip back to Wirksworth as a Golden Wedding present from the family, and had extended their stay slightly to go to a niece's wedding. The officiating minister? Me!
