Making sense of numbers and words: Statistical methods |

I started out in South Africa, finished school there, completed a nine-month spell of Citizens Force training in an artillery regiment, and at the urging and with the financial assistance of my parents left for New Zealand. I spent four years in New Zealand, the first two in Wellington at the University of Victoria, and the next two in Christchurch at the University of Canterbury. I've included a link to a University of Auckland webpage that in passing refers to my time in New Zealand. My friends and acquaintances from that time have disappeared from sight with the exception of a friend at the time, Alistair (Alister) Hallum. Alistair started out as an industrial design student in NZ and, as far as I can tell, ended up working for the BBC after making a film, Mud and Water Man, about a well-known potter, Michael Cardew), to whom he was briefly apprenticed. I left New Zealand to see the world and got as far as Australia, where I've remained ever since. |
