Call the Midwife: Guess what I am having for tea!

Ha! 😂 I learned what a chippy tea means. I already had a good hunch that it's not tea but googling made me laugh. That should have been easy to interpret but it was not. I love to learn these little things. You and liamloveslarry made my evening. Thanks! 😂

haha you’re welcome anon and you’re exactly right: it’s not tea as in the hot drink, it’s tea as in the evening meal a lot of the world (and most southerners in the uk) call dinner but northerners like me and @liamloveslarry call tea! we sometimes call lunch dinner too, although I find that i use both depending on who i’m with.

and for anyone else wondering what a chippy tea is, it’s basically battered fish or battered sausage with chips. basically the usual thing you’d get from the chippy (fish and chip shop)
