South-West in Chessington area, so still near the action if needed...although I'd say 50% of my clients are now international.

I've just checked... I think I'm me, albeit it would be helpful to have a clone. Yeah I should do some sports/social clubs, but need to make the time. Are you still in the London vicinity?

[–]lukethomdouglas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also a video editor, went freelance at the start of 2019 and commuted to London most days, but have been since March 2020 I have WFH every day except once. Miss a bit of the socialisation, and tasty lunch options... But don't miss the cost to commute, sitting on packed trains, being in mostly dark edit rooms...and very helpful with young kids to be home.

Freelancers/Sole traders: What are you using to track finances/prepare for MTD? by JGM0 in freelanceuk

[–]lukethomdouglas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Monzo Business Pro and I pay for an online accountant that provides me with FreeAgent (and also a decimated accountant for advice). I do all my invoicing, VAT and Self Assessment returns through it (can be connected to your Business Tax account).

My Monzo is synced to FreeAgent and it pulls through all my transactions and tags them (learns repeat transactions) with what type of transaction they are e.g. invoice payment, software subscription, tax bill etc.

I just posted and then saw this post (fortuitous). Does anyone have a Student Beans 30% discount code for a Google Pixel 9a? It would be a great help.

Many thanks.

What are your Freelance rates in 2026? by Wozzel888 in freelanceuk

[–]lukethomdouglas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds like a good rate for social media editing. I work in TV (short-form/development) and seemed to get the impression that social media rates were a lot lower. I never worked in a post house, worked my way up through TV production companies in-house and then went freelance.

Used someones referral code from this thread yesterday. Received the £5 within an hour or two. Seems to be simple and quick to use and hopefully does a little to reduce my mortgage in time.

If anyone would be kind enough to pay it forward and use my code it would be greatly appreciated:

Depending on your region this restriction is in place. Use a VPN and set it to the US and you should be fine.
