Iceland, but Aldi is closer..

As a kid we were brought up having tea as an evening meal on a Sunday.

Probably because it consisted of a plate of sandwiches made from cold meat from Sunday lunch and usually served with a pot of tea.

We were abroad on holiday at a gite in France. A local invited us round to theirs for 'tea' later that day. We arrived smart with a bottle of wine, to realise they meant late afternoon cup of tea and biscuits.

We felt very embarassed, but they didn't realise the double meaning , so luckily they weren't aware of our embarrising mistake. We felt very un-cosmopolitan

Was brought up in Cheshire. So Breakfast, Dinner and Tea. Then lived in Surrey for 12 years and I changed to Breakfast, lunch and Dinner to fit in with southerners!

Now living in Cheshire again with folks on a temp basis and my Dad says "What do you want for your Tea?"

My argument is always that you had Dinner Ladies at school; not Lunch Ladies.

So...it's Tea for evening meal!

It depends where I am and who I’m speaking to as to what I call it so I don’t confuse them. If I’m north or talking to a northerner it’s dinner and tea, if a southerner or I’m down south it’s lunch and dinner. I don’t bat an eyelid to any of them, I’ve split my time enough to know what someone means and to adapt automatically when saying it.

I was visiting my French relatives back in 2002 and at 4pm they started getting quite agitated and looking at their watches and sort of looking at me expectantly.

Turns out they assumed everyone in England drinks tea at 4 o'clock, and the fact that I hadn't asked for any was setting them on edge!

They'd gone and bought some teabags in readiness for me! (Lipton of course, as that's the only bloody teabags they seem to do over there as far as I've seen!)
