former Sage shop

I forgot to say: I also noticed Sage has blacked-out windows and a new undercoat of paint. Wha' gwan? Anyone know?

Apparently Maison Mayci (sp??) in Kings Heath are moving in.
Presumably an extra shop rather than closing down the Poplar Rd one.

I gather that the MM staff have been telling people that they are coming to Moseley.

A Maison Mayci in Moseley could really work - especially if it's got the space in the Sage premises that they don't have up in Poplar Road. That place is packed to the gunnals every Saturday with middle-class Mosely-ites and their little Jocastas and Ruperts.

Saturdays maybe, but what about the rest of the time?

Kings Heath seems to be the place for "yummy mummies" and their kiddiwinkles to hang out of a weekday. Poplar Rd is always full of mums and buggies, meeting in the cafes and shopping in People, Thyme Out and The Festival Shop. I can't see that crowd keeping Moseley going during the week, just because we have one Maison Mayci.

EDIT that's not to say I don't think it's a good idea. Mmm, cake.

My friend Patrick spoke to Remi, owner of Maison Mayci - who says they're expanding the Kings Heath shop. No mention of moving to Moseley...

EDIT: sorry, seems I was getting confused!
Patrick says "They are opening a Moseley branch in Sage! Not sure if it will be a clone or slightly different but it is the same people."

Is a "yummy mummie" anything like a "MILF"? (whatever that is )

MILF means 'Mother I'd Like to F*ck', usually an 'older' woman who's still got it.

My understanding of yummy mummies is that they are younger women with young babies who have bounced back into their pre-pregnancy shapes with alarming speed, and whose offspring have an appearance of being accessories . . .
