Was going to post something similar. I've added tea to your list.
For people who didn't like to or couldn't eat at night they had their main meal at lunchtime and started calling it dinner. That's my theory anyway.
So many wools!
If dinner was in the evening how does anyone explain the existence of dinner ladies in school. Serving dinner, in the middle of the day!

What about "Ladies who Lunch" ?
You don't see those cunts eating dinner in the middle of the day.
See my previous post. If a school 'dinner' consists of a main course and pud and one assumes it is therefore the main meal of the day...and if it isn't, that would explain the obesity crisis in this country...then it is 'dinner' rather than lunch.
Because they usually have a lettuce leaf and two glasses of Pinot Grigio...and their main meal ('dinner') after hubby has come home from the office / golf course.
A school dinner is in no way the main meal of the day!
You'd be bloody starving in the evening if you only had a butty at tea time just cos you'd had a school dinner!
Ignore the portion sizes (or let's open up another thread about Tory cuts)...the fact remains a traditional school dinner consist of two courses...therefore making it the main meal of the day, therefore making it 'dinner'.
We have a starter with our tea. Well, technically we have it at the same time, as a side, so we have three courses! Partly cos I have a garlic bread habit I need to tend to regularly.
In which case, your tea is your dinner...unless you have three courses or more at any other time of the day, in which case you must by a right lardarse.
You've helped me illustrate the point...dinner is the main meal of the day, irrespective of when it is taken. So if your main meal is in the early evening, that's your dinner...if mine is at midday, that's my dinner.
Lock the thread.
Not having it. My mum shouted "TEA" every night on the doorstep at half five, & she's my mum, so she's never wrong.
I have the upmost respect for your mum but my butler says she's wrong.
They were called Lunch ladies at my primary school!!
Rumbled..

There are probably more appropriate terms you could use.
That's all kinds of wrong. Not just the word 'lunch' incorrectly used in place of dinner, but 'servery'. Servery?!
This thread in jumper form
I was brought up in a Yorkshire pit village with a Scouse dad and a Lincolnshire mum. Even then everyone agreed on terminology.
I had breakfast to start the day, then school dinner at midday but then switched to bringing sandwiches in my lunch box. At tea time I'd eat a full meal and before bed I'd have toast for supper.
Now I live in a posh Welsh border town and the locals have lunch at midday (not matter what the constituent is) and supper for the main meal in the evening when eaten at home amongst close family. If shared with guests, or is taken in a restaurant then it transmogrifies into Dinner with a capital D.

It's no wonder foreigners to our fair Isle get confused all the time.

Was surprised to see servery but they were very definitely called lunch ladies when I was there, a mere 20 years ago
This is exactly why we rebelled in 1776
