afternoon tea: is it still done?

[Bugbear]

I'm not an expert on this subject by any means, but it seems to me that - 'round here, leastways - the three meals of the day can be referred to as either: breakfast, lunch and dinner or breakfast, dinner and supper. Which you use depends partly upon whether your folk were raised in the city (the former grouping) or the country (the latter grouping).

No matter which way you say it, the meal starting times are roughly 6 - 8 AM, 11 AM - 1 PM, and 4:30 PM -7 PM. This also may depend on whether you're in an urban environment or rural environment.

As far as the original poster's question: teatime is considered a British phenomenon and is generally considered "upper class". I.e. - "We don't drink no dang tea 'less it's iced".

I was going to bring up "sun tea," but I'm not sure there is such a thing in the UK.
