    I have dinner at dinnertime and tea at teatime. Throughout the day it usually goes like:-

    Breakfast (05:00)
    2nd Breakfast (09:30)
    Dinner (12:00-13:00)
    Tea (18:00-19:00)
    Supper (whenever)

    how can you eat food at 5am?!

    I struggle before mid day!

    Quite easily, 9 times out 10 it's just a three egg omelette to keep me going on the two hour commute. Takes less than three minutes to cook, and goes down easily.

    Ive always refered to midday as 'dinnertime', so do all my family. Evening, around 5pm is 'teatime'. At those times we eat our dinner and our tea. Everyone round here calls lunch, dinner, and dinner, tea.

    I always assumed it was just posh people who ate lunch and dinner?

    Is it a regional thing?

    I live in Yorkshire we have dinner at dinner time (noon - 1pm) and tea at tea time (6pm).
