Re: Time for Tea?

In my experience it seems to be a class and a geographical thing.

Working class people (particularly in the North) often say dinner & tea. Down South (or middle class people in the North) tend to use the terms lunch and dinner.

Myself I tend to use lunch & dinner interchangeably for the midday meal & evening meal for the later meal.
