Definitely a Midlander until you get north of Mansfield IIRC that's where the road signs start saying The North.

Pretty much everything is North from me, and I have to start swimming if I want to go South, same as Wood over in Brighton there.

I was brought up though referring to 'Tea' as the evening meal (as is the more universally familiar cuppa.), it was just posh people that said 'Dinner', what we called dinner was eaten at lunch-time.

They are all them posh arty types over in Brighton though...  

They have all sorts of mullarkey like phone boxes with the internet in 'em, bakers what are called Patisseries and fancy Tea rooms known as Bistro's if you please.

I'll tell ya something else, you can't tell the 'Arthur's' from the 'Martha's' there neither, I've never seen such a carry-on as what happens over there...

Yeah Brighton can be a little 'bohemian' at times.  But I do like the Guitar, Keyboard and Amp centre in the north lanes.

So, where does 'supper' fit into this little dialogue?

One who likes a pint
 
 
 
'Midlands' translation for those of you what is posh:
  • Breakfast = Breakfast
  • Brunch = Elevenses
  • Lunch = Dinner (except on Sunday, which is always Sunday Lunch)
  • Teatime = 4 o'clock
  • Dinner = Tea
  • Supper = Tea (as in Fish Supper)
  • Late supper = Supper
  • Night time snack = Kebab/Curry

Tonight's menu à la Strammy:
  • Bubble & Squeak (lots)
  • Smoked back becan (5 rashers)
  • Baked beans
 
It could get nasty on the morrow
 
 
 

And watch out if Strummie lifts either of his legs!
 
Gawd .. to think that rock'n'roll learned from all this! Whoodah thunk it?

Try and blame the cloud on any nearby factory.
