I asked the teenager who was babysitting my daughter if she used Twitter and she said "Ohmigod, no". She only used it to follow celebrities. She laughed and said it would be silly for her to use it and basically it would be "I'm going to the bathroom now". You're a dear old friend, but I find that I waste enough time following your blog. Phil,

Which explains why Phil has been so busy, I suppose. I think “tweep” is what birds call a yiff. Which explains why Phil has been so busy, I suppose.
