Francis sighted in Birmingham

It's official! He's moved to Brum. He's staying with H for a week, then moving into a room in a shared house. He's going to the agency on Monday to look for driving jobs. He's done it. He's left Hobbiton. I hoped he would, but i thought wrong. Another triumph of hope over experience.

We're meeting him for a drink later to celebrate his arrival.

We went over to help him move his stuff and half his CDs fell on the floor. I picked one up and noticed that the cover was labelled 'to Tomuss from Jerome'. Generous, eh?
