Drummer boy has been lusting after the wild blue yonder, the big bad world and life, the universe and everything.
He is 18 after all and he has been able to drink legally for 48 hours. I dont know about voting...he has an English passport and we are domiciled in France, but he has his own priorities.
He is an adult...
No expense has been spared to equip Drummer boy with his every furniture need, especially second hand fringed sofas.
His father is resting after piling all of Drummer boy's new(ish) belongings into a ritualistic pyramid, ready to transport to his appartment in Rennes where he will
Desperate measures are resorted to, in order to cram the very last necessity of Drummer boy's student life into a confined space. Yes, he must have a kitchen cabinet as well as a chest of drawers (an object unheard of in french furniture circles)
The strain is too much for some, and they are forced to take a break, whilst others soldier on...
Drummer boy bravely tries to hide his misgivings at launching himself into the unknown.
While I wonder whether the tottering pyramid will manage to complete 90 kilometers...

Wait 'til he moves back home! Our offspring has done this to us a few times. Their father is an expert mover!
My how times have changed. I left for college with a suitcase. A freaking suitcase!
When I took my daughter to college 8 years ago, it took a couple of truck loads to get her there. My son goes in the fall, and I assume it will take even more.
When I was 18, I was a baby adult, just finding out how to walk.
Times have changed! Now the kids get all the mod cons- including fringeing yet!!
Oh, this is a bit sad - must be hard to see him go off on his own into the world! But I agree with Marja-leena, I'm sure he'll be back at various stages!
Glad he took a commode with him!
The fringing is a bit uncool isn't it? On the other hand at least it will conceal all the dust bunnies and ash and torn-off bits of rizla paper that won't get hoovered up - he didn't take a hoover did he?
