On the whole it looks fine, Frances. Just one minor problem  
(shouldn't affect a parser finding the hCard though):

The 'work' and 'fax' are actually values for the 'type' property, not  
properties in themselves.

So you should have something more like:

<div class="tel">
<span class="type">Fax:</span> <span class="value">+44(0)1344 865555</ 
span>
</div>

There are more examples of how this works here:
