Ha! Ha! You're right there leatherback. Putting that aside, I've worked out that as someone in the city with 2 years experience I'm somewhat underpaid. Can't see that improving in the near future. Still dreaming of freelancing though. Unfortunately, everything seems to be asp.net at the moment.
PDFs aren't my faourite either. The information is fairly interesting thought. I wonder how it compares with that in the US.
