H me duck, tea is at 4pm. With bread and jam. I'm never home for 4pm, we usually eat at 8 - 9. So it's dinner.
As for dinner ladies, I assume you mean this: http://www.the-dinner-ladies.co.uk/ |

Our school they are called 'Lunchtime Supervisors'. Must admit when I started there my reaction was WTF????
Anyway, on topic, it's all according!!! If it's the main meal it's dinner, if main meal was had at lunchtime (and still called dinner) then the snack in the evening is called Tea. |

Mother always told me that to refer to ones evening meal as tea was highly questionable and a touch common, which would never do.
One must say that one does so rarely get invited to tea parties these days, but does often attend Dinner parties. The hardest question that one should answer surely is, how much one should pay the Nanny for working as a serving girl on her one evening off? Well what else does that tiresome girl do once the children are in bed? Bring back flogging for the servants is what Daddy says, when he is not out shooting with the Major and his wife. ![]() |

In Canada it's supper, but I dont know what a late evening meal is. We still call it dinner (I've only been here 12 years - so I'm still learning the language!)
