I'm with losi xxx on this one. Take the job, go for the other interview and if it works out well you can still take the higher paid one. If the other company desperatley want you, surely they'll wait a week??

You are saying £33k more...... how is that even a choice?

I'm not sure where you live, but I am assuming up north. Bear in mind the crazy cost of living down here.
