Offline Mode: Making Conversation At The Dinner Table

How many times have you been at the table with your friends and family and either seen people stuck on their phones, or replied to texts or Insta notifications yourself? Let’s be honest, it’s pretty second nature to most of us. So, this festive season, we’re suggesting to leave your phones in your pockets, on the sofa, or in your room whilst you eat, and have some good chats with the people you love!
