MEETING IN FARM LANE

As of the 23rd May 2022 this website is archived and will receive no further updates.

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.

We go clay pigeon shooting from time to time at Fyfield about an hour's drive from our home. The first time we took the wrong lane having missed the (rather small) direction sign, just short of the club. We arrived at a farm house and my wife got to ask the way. To her amazement the woman who greeted her was an old friend from her horse riding stable, who she had lost touch with some years ago. (So, we remained there for some while as they chatted).
