I know this sort of situation too well. Lots of companies in the UK seem to want web developers, but far fewer seem to realise that it'll cost more than it does

I know this sort of situation too well. Lots of companies in the UK seem to want web developers, but far fewer seem to realise that it'll cost more than it does to pay someone to stack shelves. It's especially the case in regards to agencies, jobs referred by recruiters, etc. And a lot of companies even offer this in places like London, where the rent is far higher.
