On a Sunday the same. Unless we are having dinner in the evening, which we are today in which case it is breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Always breakfast, lunch, dinner regardless of size of meal.

I have a weird habit of referring to all my meals as either 'my dinner,' or just 'my meal'.
I guess I very rarely eat breakfast. For me dinner does traditionally mean an evening meal. Tea wouldn't really come into it. Except a cup of tea in the morning! I'm southern with Irish background.

Breakfast, lunch, dinner/supper depending on how substantial it is.

HurdyGurdy19 · 28/07/2024 16:54

Breakfast (which I don't eat anyway), lunch and dinner.

Tea, unless specifically "afternoon tea", is a drink, and I won't be persuaded otherwise 😀

Also, breakfast, dinner tea.

I'm from the Midlands. My DC were born in the South. We had many a 'discussion' about this when they were at home (aka arguments!).

Breakfast, lunch, tea & biccies at 6.00 pm and dinner at 7.00 pm. Unless it is Sunday, in which case it is breakfast, Sunday lunch and tea & crumpets at 6.00 pm.

To clarify, 'tea' as in 'cup of'. In fact, I need to go and toast some crumpets and put the kettle on now.

Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Northern, and obviously I know what people mean when they refer to “tea”. My Southern mum calls it supper, which I’ve always thought is a bit silly and twee.
