We had a delicious lunch today at a lovely, noisy restaurant on Anglesey. The four people on the table next to us (students at Bangor University) were quite extraordinary - they'd come out for lunch together - but only looked at their phones - they hardly spoke one word to each other in over an hour. Left me feeling a little sad that this was the future.
Great shot to reflect exactly what you wrote. However, there is hope. They don't all do this! Our 22 year old gets very tetchy if we as much as look at our phones when in her company. She thinks it's very rude! I agree - if I'm in company and I need to check my phone, I always excuse myself - otherwise I wait.
