    Anybody north of Watford calls dinner, tea. Don't ask me why, all that inbreeding they can be a bit strange. <whistle>

    Tea is a drink.

    Lunch is the only word I use for lunch. Imagine agreeing to go out for dinner and one of you turns up at 12 and the other turns up at 7pm.

    It is breakfast, dinner, tea as the three main meals of the day.

    I will grudgingly accept though that there are variations.

    On a Sunday for instance; if you eat a roast 'dinner' at dinner time is is Sunday lunch whereas if you eat it at tea time it is Sunday dinner.

    An event type meal, usually a large ish gathering, is also a dinner. A Sportsman's dinner for instance. You wouldn't go on a sportsman's tea. Or indeed a Sportsman's lunch if it were early in the day.

    Apparently they do but what your average southerner does is counterpoints a dinner lady with something called a business lunch as their argument.

    It's breakfast, lunch and dinner.

    However, a 'Dinner Lady' serves lunch to school kids and you ask "whats for tea" when you're not sure what the missus is cooking for dinner.

    I think their official name is 'lunch monitors' or Grassing Arseholes.

    I thought supper was what people from Canterbury called their dinner, I had no idea Spurlock was so posh.

    He threw me with the Ice Cube business.

    Mines a combo of your options Matth, maybe you should have been more considerate and thought of other options?

    Mine is Breakfast, Lunch, Tea.

    Tbh I think I'm a combo type of guy due to living all over the place most of my life!

    I wish Matthew would contribute and host the thread a bit. I want to know what urged Matthew to create this article.
