Depends what you mean by "comfortable", but I'm pretty comfy on ~£70k in London. I rent a 2-bed flat in a gorgeous area close to the tube with my girlfriend (who earns around min wage), can save for a house deposit, have a few international holidays a year, don't worry about bills or food or anything. Granted, my hobbies are pretty cheap, but it's far from uncomfortable.
