10:05 Playing Favourites with David Haywood
Christchurch writer David Haywood began a university degree in 19th
century literature, and ended up graduating with a Ph.D. in engineering.
In between, he found employment as a forklift driver,
guitarist/songwriter, road-works lollipop man, computer programmer,
librarian, university lecturer, and research scientist. His scientific
work resulted in patents for cryocooler systems and ocean wave energy
technology. David writes the Southerly blog on PublicAddress.net, and
recently published My First Stabbing (Public Address Books, ISBN:
978-0473140649), a collection of his columns that encompasses such
apparently unrelated subjects as the urination habits of Germans, the
fatness of policemen in Boston, humble woodcutter's sons who marry women
with big hair, and babies with projectile defecation.
