This 'loonie' works at TC. This 'loonie' works nights. This loonie may eat something during the night shift, but it is not 'lunch'.

Lunch is a meal at midday, dinner is a meal in the evening, Breakfast - well, thats the meal in the morning that 'breaks' the 'fast' that usually occurs if you sleep all night.

Despite some northern English spin, tea is a mid morning or mid afternoon snack taken at a time other than the above meals.

I don't know what you were trying to prove, all I was saying was lunch at 1240am is not strictly true, and certainly not the correct use of English. Something which a journalist should get correct, even if all the other bull that they print is factually incorrect, or misleading, or speculative.

I'm off for my early morning meal
