I thought it just meant "with chips" Fine in relation to a fish supper etc but as Bairnardo correctly says, "supper" outwith the context of a chip shop, should mean a small snack before bed.

bennett Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 When I was a youngster it was mainly called tea, now more folk seem to say dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calling it a roll means you can spread butter on it. Putting butter on a buttery means you are just a fat git. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Lunch is only between 12 and 2 pm.Dinner can be the same as lunch, but only if you're at school or work or it is Christmas. Otherwise it's between 6 and 7pm.Tea can be the same as the 6-7 definition of dinner, or can just be an afternoon snack of tea and biscuits. If it's the latter, it should properly be called "afternoon tea".I think there is something called "high tea" too, but I've never had it. I think it's something women have.

From what I remember, it usually mean something simple (eg fish and chips) but served with bread and butter and cups of tea on the side. My missus often goes to afternoon tea. This is posh sandwiches, cake and prosecco, gin and tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
