I remembered another to my series of coincidences

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.

When I was working in Japan, I finally found an apartment one of many I looked at. One day sitting on the loo of the en suite with the door open, I noticed the lock plate, it was stamped "Four Oaks Lock and Key" I grew up in Four Oaks in Sutton Coldfield and know the Four Oaks Lock and Key company, as a small locksmith shop on the high street. Quite how their locks ended up in my apartment in Japan I will never know.
