It will come as some relief to Moseley residents to hear that the most recent meeting of the Kings Heath Forum agreed an ambitious programme of aid for their impoverished neighbours in B13.

As Kings Heath gets national recognition for its resurgence they have begun to realise they owe us a debt of gratitude for pricing out the more interesting house buyers and pursuing business development plans that make Kings Heath a very attractive offer.

Although a generous offer of support it isn’t without strings. With a typical nod to that Kings Heath sense of humour the package of aid will come in the form of a massive shiny penny that will be required to be displayed  in the window of any one of our boarded up shops. The massive penny came with a note that just said:-

“Get yourself  something nice.

                              Kings Heath”

The scorn poured on us by our richer neighbours was all to obvious at recent a Kings Heath Forum meeting where the following could be only just heard above the quaffing of Champagne “They claim to be bohemian but have they got a man who pushes a monkey round in a push chair? No they haven’t, their only claim to eccentricity is man who’s  only point of note is that he hasn’t got any fucking shoes.”

A point well made.
