If you are I would say those figures are a bit low, although development isnt' my thing.. we have desktop guys here an 375 a day, and a good friend of mine is still bringing in 850 a day plus, although he is probably the most eminently qualified and skilled support/infrastructure engineer I know of.
Nah im right on the outside mate, not london itself, I wasnt talking city numbers, you can double everything if you are in the right company in the city.

Ive never chased wages though TBH anyway, when I was on 500 a day I was turning down jobs on 600 a day just cause I liked where I was, and these days im a poorly paid permie anyway, I just dont actually find money very motivating, so I wasnt putting myself up as an example of the top end of what can be earnt, just merely a realistic one from my own experiences.
