We sometimes catch part of a TV show while we are waiting for one we always watch. It is Long Lost Family. Some of these stories are very harrowing. One we caught was about KT Tunstall who has quite a distinguished musical...

M Cheung I usually do not use my phone while eating as a group. But if I receive a call, I'll check who's calling in case there is something urgent I need to deal with.
