For one reason and another, mainly the gold-paved streets obviously, i'm relocating my little existence to London, and it has to be done quite soon. This will involve leaving my job though and i want to exit on good terms so i need to figure a few things out...

a) how much am i looking at for basic living costs? Most likely sharing a place with a couple of people. Ooh, and what areas should i be looking?

b) should i leave end of October or put up with the rather boring current job until the beginning of the new year which'll give me more organisation/application time?

c) does anyone know any good recruitment agencies tailored towards media/new media preferably?

thank you kindly
