> We work out of a very cheap office in a council How did you arrange that?

  That should have been council owned building, typing on a phone is still painful. Lots of councils here in the UK own office buildings and rent them out, We get two big rooms as a single office for ~340 a month which includes 24/7 access everything but phone/internet basically. You can see the size of my side http://imgur.com/a/H7fxb http://imgur.com/a/H7fxb in the bottom image, that desk is 8ft long, the other side is even bigger (maybe 60% bigger) but I didn't want it because it's too bright.

    Very nice! I'm not sure whether I'm surprised that the council has offices that are so much cheaper than privately available. Would you mind saying which council this is?

      Not at all, Hull City Council. They are managed by the NPS group one of those, privatise the public sector deals. Though out building lease was just taken over by a non-profit setup to help younger people get started in business, so far they've been amazing at getting an old building up to spec :). Hull is a bit of a basket case economically but its on the up and would be a good place to run a startup if you want cheap good offices and insane broadband, I have 250Mbps at home!
