I never really got out of the research stage, but KMyMoney and jgnash 
seemed decent contenders in the OSS world.

The OpenDirectory has a lot of links to offer:

One product I noticed being mentioned as a decent cross-platform 
commercial solution is Moneydance:

But that's just stuff I read on the internet somewhere ;-)

I have no personal experience beyond startup + 10min with any of these, 
and I'm not in the UK. I'd be interested to hear proper opinions, in 
case I ever bother to do my finances properly :-)
