Lynda, 

Let me thank you both for promptly updating these job details offering a higher salary, and also posting jobs which pay a reasonable living wage for our profession in London. 

Moreover, let us all hope this is a sign - after four years of recession and cuts - that things are beginning to improve, and that job adverts such as this one inspire, or perhaps shame others to offer a decent wage for our skills that is appropriate to the location of the role. 

Regards, 

Ian
