I'm actually from the north (liverpool) and never understood why people call it breakfast - dinner - tea.
Breakfast - lunch - dinner makes much more sense to me.

Exactly. What do they call afternoon tea and cakes then? It's called Teatime down here. That way we can distinguish lunch from tea from dinner. Simples!

This may just blow your mind, but in other parts of the world, they even speak different languages, let alone dialects.

Honestly, this sort of thing is pathetic. Get over yourself.

I don't like the word supper as it seems a little la-di-dah to me.

Personally for me it's:

Breakfast, elevenses, lunch, tea and then dinner. :)


However, we've had this debate before... do we really want it again?
 
If people find this thread so rubbish, don't they have better things to do than post in it? Look on the bright side though, at least you get to have a bitch and a moan about something else. You could call it my christmas present to you. :) You can read it again at tea if you want.

"elevenses"...

(Sorry- looking for one of those smiley things but they've all got Santa hats on and so don't convey my sense of irony no matter which way I chose to use them)
 
Essex boy here, myself and everyone I know say breakfast, lunch and dinner.

I think I used to call it tea time when I was a young child but soon grew up into the strapping chunk of manly dinner calling man I am now.
