If someone said "mid to late morning" to you, what time would you think that was?

[OhamIreally]

Making contact arrangements with ex for after Christmas (so not imminently firming up plans IYSWIM).
Told ex I would be able to drop off at a mid-way point mid-late morning.
He's now asked for a "rough time" so he can plan his departure time.

AIBU that I have already give a rough time?

I’d think 10-11

10-11?

In those specific circumstances I'd want a time, never mind a rough time.

Agree with pps.

11/11.30

Late morning to me would be 11.55

I'd say the same as pp. Just tell him a time.

Definitely 10 to 11.

11-11:30

I’d think 11am ish, but why not just tell him?

Why is it hard to say a time? Am I missing something 🙈

10-11, but if it’s important like Xmas I’d want a definite time.

Mid morning is about 9:30 to me and late morning is anywhere up until lunchtime. So a fairly large window in my eyes.

If your meeting at a mid point you need a precise (to within 15 minute) time not a wishy washy rough time

That seems a perfectly reasonable request from him.
To me, mid to late morning would be 10am-11.30am approximately. But it's open to personal interpretation. So he's asking for a rough idea. All you need to do is say "between 10am and 11am" or whatever suits you.

Mid to late morning would never be earlier than 1015 but if not given a specific time I would expect to wait until midday.

It seems like you are being a bit awkward

I'd think 10:30-11:30

11-12 (or 10 for early risers). You definitely need to be more specific.

I'd say late morning is 11am. Mid to late morning approx 10 - 11am.

It would be better though to actually state an approximate time like around 10.30am or between 10am and 11am as obviously it means that everyone understands what's intended.

Mid morning to me is 9.30ish and late morning to me is 11ish.

I'd think 9-11 but I'd also want a time. Why can't you give him one?

@Chasingsquirrels

Same here. Mid to late morning could be any time from 10- 12. He wants to make plans, so is asking for a more specific time than at any point in a 2 hour window.

Mid to late morning 10-12.....useful if someone is dropping something off to your home.

For the example you are giving I'd want a specific time, or at least a half hour window (assuming traffic may impact exact time) - his is being perfectly reasonable to want this.

Without looking at other replies - 10/10.30 to 12 noon.

Agree with this his request is totally reasonable and its odd you're being so obtuse in not giving him a clear time.

If I'm arranging to meet someone I'd want a specific time given so I'm not left arriving too early or late especially when children are involved.

People's ideas of mid morning may differ but if you say 10 for example then there is no room for confusion.
