I meant the meal served in the afternoon/early evening. It can be afternoon tea (cakes or something cold) or 'high' tea (something hot such as beans on toast).

I didn't think that you were lost - just thought you were being given the run-around (like being sent to the stores for a long weight).

Beans on toast, high tea?? Hmm!

In our house, we had something like that - poached eggs, tinned spaghetti or sardines - always on toast to 'bulk it out'. I'm talking 1950s . . .
