I rarely eat lunch, and if I do, it's between 12.30 and 14.30, and, living by the influences of my old dad, nobody civilised eats dinner before 19.30 to 20.00, so in starting our Christmas Day meal around 17.30, winding down with shots of Armagnac around 21.00, we were eating a very late lunch, or very early dinner.

1.00pm which means that it was lunch and not dinner. Can't eat dinner as it's too late for my digestion, all big meals are eaten at lunchtime.

I'm exactly the same, 3-00pm is borderline for me.
Every other day I have my main meal at 1-00 & just a couple of slices of toast around 5-00pm. Some people think I'm strange.

We eventually sat down to eat after 10pm but as I had been snacking and picking all day I couldn't eat as much as I wanted to. Made up for that on Boxing Day though

Finally enough I had worse indigestion last night after eating dinner at 8pm then I did on Christmas Day!

Our table was booked for 3, we arrived at 2:50.

We were seated at 3:20, our starter arrived at 4:15 after I asked 3 times. Our main course (after I'd again asked a few times) arrived at 5:05. Our dessert arrived at 5:45 after, again, asking a few times. The pub closed at 6. We never received the complimentary mince pie, cheese and crackers that were supposed to come.

Along with many of the customers, I got our cutlery and cleared our table and, again along with many customers, we didn't settle the bill (we had paid 2/3rds of it as a deposit and were never given a bill or asked to pay).

Same here. I usually have a big Brunch as if I ate at tea-time it would lay heavy on my tummy all night.

We had it at 1pm, finished about 2.30 and I didn't eat anything else that day.

Starter around 1:30, main at 3pm, pudding about 6pm

After seeing various parents never actually get a chance to actually enjoy their dinner (prepping the next course while everyone else is enjoying theirs) we vowed never to do that. So it is a pretty relaxed affair
