Left CGS in '57 and moved up
to the university at Western Bank. Stayed
there until '63 when I left
with a PhD in Physics. I joined the Road
research Laboratory and worked
on the experiments on those
mini-roundabouts that you now
have all over the place. I also worked on
the early studies of computer
control of traffic signals.
Emigrated to Canada in '68. Since
'71 I have been on the Faculty of Queen's
University in Kingston Ontario.
I retired as an Emeritus Professor of
Civil Engineering in 2003. Over
the years I have been able to do work
for the UN Development Program
in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and
Indonesia. I also spent 2 years
in Australia where I learned the
pleasures of Aussie wine.
Widowed in '93, I remarried in
'98. We now have a blended family of five
children and currently 5 grand
children. For a kid from the Manor, I realise
that I owe a lot to the dedicated
teachers at CGS.
