The UK PP has it at ?23,000 avg. with the midway point at ?20,000 i.e. 50% make above this 50% make below this. In 2007.
It looks like it was converted to euros for 2007. At that point the pound was ridiculously overvalued. Then it was $2.20 to 1?. So I think what you are seeing there is conversion fluctuations. edit- yeah conversion at that time was 1.4-1.5 http://www.x-rates.com/d/EUR/GBP/hist2007.html which comes out to about 34,000 euro. Strong pound is what is throwing that off.
Right now it is ?1 to 1.24euro which would get 29,000 euro for the average (from 5years ago). Though with Greece tanking that will probably be going up. So actually with increase in salaries you are still looking at an average pay of somewhere in the 30,000 euros for archs.
