I think the seminar I was at quoted from a different source, but the Annual Business Survey is actually published by the LDA, where I work, so I'll go along with that. I don't think it significantly undermines my argument however, but that will have to wait until we next meet...!Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06279869776330572117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6600193.post-44437540535447135322007-07-08T20:36:00.000+01:002007-07-08T20:36:00.000+01:00Sorry I had to head off so early on btw - only jus...Sorry I had to head off so early on btw - only just managed to catch the last connecting train from Reading to Wokingham on my way home mind you. <BR/><BR/>Hopefully be back in Londons before too long...Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14444432374288096799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6600193.post-42555565283474069042007-07-03T17:08:00.000+01:002007-07-03T17:08:00.000+01:00Can't remember what the exact claim on business em...Can't remember what the exact claim on business employment was, but the <A HREF="http://www.lda.gov.uk/upload/pdf/London_Annual_Business_Survey_2004.pdf" REL="nofollow">London Annual Business Survey 2004</A> (PDF warning) says on Page 10:<BR/><BR/>"Figure 2.4 shows that businesses employing over 200 people (0.6% of total businesses) account for just over one-fifth (21.7%) of total employment in London."<BR/><BR/>Which, I think, backs up what I was saying about there not being a total reliance on huge corporations.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I had a good evening, but it was too short!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15966866772315594964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6600193.post-33675415212602456672007-07-03T12:32:00.000+01:002007-07-03T12:32:00.000+01:00There's a 'hebra' on the BBC news site today (hors...There's a 'hebra' on the BBC news site today (horse/zebra).

Ligers are huge (can be twice as big as lions), but tigons are normal size. In both cases, the males are infertile but the females fertile. Some good pictures on the web, but as usual, <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liger" REL="nofollow">Wikipedia</A> has the best account. Amazing! And I'd never even heard of them before Thursday.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06279869776330572117noreply@blogger.com
