Dr Mumbo is delighted to see that David Penberthy has today gone through that columnist rite-of-passage of writing about his indoctrination into Twitter. Penbo tells Daily Telegraph readers:  

“Like so many other desperate middle-aged try-hards, I’ve just opened a Twitter account.”

And his most recent tweet this morning?

“chilli and garlic. MMMMmmmmm. They run a tight kebabbery those boys at Safiyah on Enmore Rd.”
