I thought the national average was something like 26k?

I hate to rub this ins, but if thats true, I work in the west end, and if you dont include the london waiting I'm still earning more few grand more than the national average.

But then again my one bedroom flat in Croydon is gonna cost me £800 per month in mortgage repayments with £500 worth of bills on the top of that before I have any other out goings like travel, food ect.

Oh and I pay nearly 25% tax

Soo pretty much all my money gone right then and there.
