On the back of the "Flirty Women" thread I would like to know precisely what time does "tea time" occur in your particular quadrant of the British Isles? 🥘 🥗 🫖

Depends what day it is and if I've eaten that day.

Like today, I haven't eaten and am now going to stuff my face with whatever junk I can get my grubby hands on. It's tea time!!!

I read on the previous aforementioned thread that ‘Dinner’ was the meal in the middle of the day.

Breakfast

*option Brunch, a late breakfast, that also replaces Lunch hence the portmanteau ’Brunch’.

Lunch, middle of the day meal +-1 hour of midday

*option Teatime, compromised of Tea, sandwiches, biscuits, poss. French Fancy or something else in the Mr Kipling range.

Dinner about 6pm - can be missed if Teatime was late or someone had roast beef sandwiches when they knew a nice dinner was planned

*option Supper 8 or 9 pm - leftovers, meats (ham or chicken), nice chutney, crackers. Pickled onions. I’ll have the rest of that potato salad in the fridge

Let me clarify. Every cup of tea is tea time. The evening meal is also called tea.

Breakfast

Elevenses

Dinner/Lunch

Afternoon tea with biscuits

Tea

Supper

Needless to say all the above include a cup of tea ☕

This has always confused me …. Purely as I didn’t grow up here….. hopefully 🤞 after 22 years I’ve mastered it and understand it as between 4-6pm
