The Yummy Mummies

Ooer. Yummy mummies are fabulously dressed women who drive to babygym in their 4x4's and meet afterwards in the park for Smoothies and to let the kiddies toddle about for a bit. They all have sweetie-darling accents, look fabulously fresh-faced and have degrees in English and Russian Literature or History of Art from St Mary's, Strawberry Hill. Yummy mummies are stick insects with husbands rich enough to allow them a fabulous wardrobe, this season comprising those darling Gap jeans, pink mohair poncho's and 1940's style silver stilleto's from Topshop.
They're always rushing about to meet each other for coffee and a natter and then saying things like "must dash- I'll text you!", giving the impression of busy popularity while really going home for a quiet half hour before hubby gets in and they cook something irresistable from Nigella's latest book.

Given half the chance, most of us girlies would be Yummy Mummies, this observer included. Just as soon as her adorable and clever bf gets rich enough to buy her a beamer and a large platinum-and-diamond ring.
