9.30 and we’ve not yet had dinner

[Ticktockk]

Staying with family for Christmas and oh my, am I hungry?!
I tend to eat with the kids at home and this is now my bedtime 😅
What madness are you currently experiencing over Christmas?

9.45…… send help and cheese

Oh my god I would've eaten my family by now

Surely if you're close enough to be invited for Christmas, your close enough to ask when the grub's up?

Sending love and strength!
Tomorrow morning pop out for bacon sandwiches

🧀🍷🍨🍾🍹

What? Why?

My god, what’s the hold up? We tend to eat later, but this is madness.

Get delivery

I've often eaten my dinner by 5pm, I'd have eaten my arm 🙃

We didn’t eat until about nine but that was because the guest who was arriving today’s train was delayed so they didn’t get in until 7pm.

on a normal day I eat about 6-7pm.

have they even said when dinner will be? Have you asked, they might be waiting until you ask thinking you are not ready yet?

Is it almost ready?!!

Shops tomorrow to a stock up on snacks!

Get delivery. You get fed and they get the message!

Can you eat the choccies from under the tree?

I would be sooo hangry by now!

I never go anywhere without snacks in my bag just in case. Did they eat before you arrived maybe?

No Christmas madness here I’m afraid! Just the 4 of us with no relations u til Boxing Day, so sensible mealtimes and an early night all round! (we’re so rock and roll )

Some of my extended family eat very late and also have a habit of only eating once a day. If there’s a roast dinner at 2pm you might be offered some cereal at 8am if you’re lucky (can’t spoil your dinner!) and then after the roast you won’t be offered any food again for the rest of the day. I’m peckish again by 7 and have been know to sneak snacks in my guest bedroom!

Well @Ticktockk hasn’t responded, hopefully they’re eating…..

We never eat before 9, so this wouldn't be particularly late for us.

Ohmygod it’s like visiting my Spanish family! I was accused of being rude by my dad when I asked if lunch was forthcoming / I could have a snack to keep me going… at 3pm!
different cultural norms indeed

That's outrageous. Are they snobs who refer to it as "supper"?

Oh that's awful, I would so hate that.

Is there any plans for you to even have food?

Is the oven on at least? I think I’d be ordering dominoes.

Are you in Spain, if not this is not normal!
