Mama Shelter Nice To See You, To See You Mama Shelter Nice...

3 days ago | thesaucemag.com | Phil Clarke

I feel like I’m coming late to Nice. The French city, not the biscuit. I’ve been through the beachside airport dozens of times, usually on my way to somewhere nice and Provençal.

It’s jolly nice (no pun), and if it wasn’t for committing to review the new Mama Shelter opening there, I’d never have known.

Walking through my local park the other day there was a woman topless sunbathing. Just lying there on Tooting Bec Common soaking up the rays with regard for the thoughts of the world as scant as her clothing. My shock wasn’t so much prudishness, but meteorological. It was 12 degrees.
