When do you eat dinner/tea?

p4radox · 30 Aug 2009 at 18:22

Dinner at about 1pm. Tea at about 7pm (that's the northerner in me calling it its proper name).

Often have multiple smaller meals in between though...

Better than all these ****ty tasting chemically enhanced ready meals easily.

ABout half 5 maybe 6, used to be 5/5:30 before my dad got a more officey job. I know some people who eat at like 7 half 7, I don't know how you can do that. I get hungry about 4 oclock and I'm starving by the time dinner gets round, couldn't wait that long.

Have breakfast anywhere between 7 and 1 oclock, lunch anywhere between 12 and 3 oclock. Depends what time I get up, what i'm doing that day etc.

anywhere between 6pm and Midnight, depends on when I'm hungry and what I'm doing in the evening after work (work 9-5)

"Tea" is a cup of tea, and maybe a slice of cake or a small sandwich 4pm-5pm.

"Dinner" is the evening meal from 6pm-8pm.

Nooooooooo, why bring this up

Dinner is between 12-2pm, tea is anything after 5:30pm. You have dinner ladies at school, hence dinner is the 12-2pm meal

So, pray tell, why are you not amused?

Who says I aren't! In fact, I'm very amused by the fact that people think I get wound up by words on a forum, when in reality I just couldn't care less.

Dinner comes from "dine" (F. dinen) and refers to the the principal or more formal meal of the day. Maybe with poor Northerners, school lunch was the only food they ate in the day. In London, of course, I had Lobster every evening for my 'dinner'.

I can't beleive how big a deal you are making of it, if this is something you couldn't care less about what happens when you DO care
