    Token furriner has a couple of questions:

    Just how many boroughs of London ARE there?

    Shouldn’t it be “were” in each London borough?

      32 of them, I believe. And yes, I muddled up the tenses: sorry. Blame the EU and translating perfectly good UK accounts into euros… :( Good to see you online.

        32? Boris Johnson is every researcher’s worst nightmare for the next few months then. I bet when he asks for a cup of tea he brackets it with a request for the price of tea in each of the 32 boroughs for each of the past ten years.
