Yesterday there were around 5,000 ambulance jobs across London (estimated by there being 4,925 jobs at 23:22) That is compared to the more normal 3,200-3,500 that occurs during the rest of the year.

And we only have to wait another 363 days for it to happen again.

...Or maybe not. The number of calls we are going on has steadily increased over the years - perhaps by the end of 2005 it will be normal to have 4,000+ jobs a day.
