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

Ever been for an all day breakfast? Now what!
