If someone has asked you pop round at tea time

[MyDuvetDay]

What time are you popping round?

Everyone in my family calls the evening meal tea, it's almost as if not everyone is the same, who knew 😁

5-ish…but I’d also ask what time they’d like me there. Because I’m not a twat.

I answered tongue in cheek (although I am pedantic) because look how many people are guessing and arguing the toss instead of asking what is meant by 'tea time'.

It’s not ‘early dinner’ for half the country. It’s simply our evening meal…as you well know, which we eat at whatever time we eat our evening meal!

Its funny to me, it's the same when someone asks about next Monday v this Monday. Why does it matter if people have different views when there's an easy way to find out, surely everyone knows there's scope for misunderstanding

Exactly!

3.30 in this house although ironically none of us drink tea and it’s really coffee time

Are you mistaking tea with supper?

5pm

possibly! In Ireland and I think tea could be supper for us! (Yes I know loads of Irish people will now tell me I’m crazy😅)

All these faux posters pretending not to know wether its a drink or meal 🙄
I live in Greater manchester
I call my evening meal tea
But im well aware people in other parts of the uk call it Dinner,supper etc.

I’d guess 4/5pm but I would check because it’s very ambiguous

Agree.
For me now I would say tea is at 5/5.30 ish, meaning my evening meal.
However as a child I had a very posh friend and tea very definitely meant a slice of cake or similar, at 4ish, with their nanny/housekeeper.

I do not live in that world lol

I would expect to turn up at around 7pm. Dinner and tea are the same thing to me.

Pop round as in call in to collect something as opposed to having food ? I would say between 5-6pm.
