Tea, supper, dinner or other

Tea for me always has been.


Just random curiosity as my work mates (multi nationals) get confused when i say "im away for tea" or "tea time" .

Break time (morning and afternoon)is tea to them whether they are English, Angolan, Philipino, Sath Ifrikin etc etc

Is calling your night munch "tea" a dying art?

Living in the States has messed me up.

Breakfast
Lunch
Dinner

Lunch being eaten in the Can**** no less.

I'm sure at school it was just Dinner in the Dinner Hall served by Dinner Wifies.

Sadly I still say lunch even though back in Scotland.
