Normal
I am unsure why a wow face has been given to my comment . For the avoidance of any confusion I meant that usually if you apply for a regional place they aren't able to switch to London and indeed it is generally discouraged. Firms do not like people applying to regional offices in the hope they can change to London. The example that the poster gave didn't address a switch merely that HL have 38 London spaces but only 2 Birmingham spaces. This does not indicate that switches were made after offers of TCs were made and most likely is indicative of the spaces they had available for each office.
