Miserable northern bastards, there's an advert here: http://www.styleboost.com/ (in the news section) for web designers in Leeds. It's all yours.

London aint always the answer, I live near Leeds and the job market is admittedly poor, but there is room for plenty of new agencies, and plenty of work to be had so if you think you can do better on your own, DO IT. start off on doing it on the side until you start getting regular work.
I'm looking into my own thing now (up north) I've worked in a studio for close to three years and I feel ready to try something different.
So stop whinging or fuck off down to our over rated capital.

North what exactly do you mean when you say "I'm looking into my own thing"?
