I've always called it lunch, unless it's going to be my main meal of the day.
Quite often when I was a student a family sized pie would be the only meal of the day. Clearly this was dinner, even if it was eaten at 3pm.

Ah...thought you'd know...should scone be pronounced like gone or bone? JFW does being like the Queen, mean you're getting on a bit and have never done a hard days work in your life?

The Groom of the Stool has a responsibility to make sure the monarch's toiletry requirements are met...no honest.

It's def lunch time.
The amount of discussions I had at work (in Leeds) arguing its lunch not dinner, dinner at lunch time is a northern thing.

Dinner is around 1pm, tea is at about 6-7pm, this is the northern way, and although I ain't from ooop north, it's always been that way for me.

The idea that dinner is the evening meal is an abomination

Think it's the industrial working class way....certainly the way for those inside. I had no idea there was an alternative until going off to university and finding a bunch of middle class types.
