It depend what you're standard of living is.
My boyfriend and I are a young couple (both students)
We live in a double bedroom, in a share house, that we share with six other people. We pay £50 a week for rent, and each pay one eight of the quarter annually water and electricity bill (that's about £2.50 each every month)
We buy about £50 worth of groceries every week.
He walks to work, it's 5 Min's away, and I cycle, 30 Min's away to college and work.
We travel on the bus maybe once a week, either to go to the cinema (about £15) or to rent DVDs (3 for £5) for the week. The bus fare is under £5 each.
We are a quite couple who doesn't like to spend lots of money, and ours is probably the cheapest cost of living in London.
If you travel on public transport every day that will be over £100 a month, and if you want to rent you're own flat or small house, over £1200 a month. Clubbing and partying also costs a lot.
London is an expensive city, but in the end, it's what you make of it that counts.

The big thing here is accomodation. If you are willing to share a house with someone you can save lots. Assuming though you want a place of your own, you are looking at rent being around £800. Stick another £200 for council tax and bills.
Getting around probably costs you around a fiver each a day (allowing for to and from work as well as the odd trip here and there on the underground/bus)
Allowing for the odd decent night out and food etc, you would want to have at least £1800 combined each month to get by, although realistically you want at least £2000 for any kind of decent standard of living.

Are you specific you have the earnings precise. a respectable london based admin function will pay around £22'000 - £25'000 according to annum.
