Woohoo! There's another Staffordshire lad on here!
Looks like you're doing well, James - keep it up mate. I like the cycling to Malaga thing - but wont you get wet somewhere around the 300km mark?
Ahh, Heidi, 'tis the source of much debate over here. My interpretation is that an English dinner is a formal meal served with typical English reserve, stiff upper lips and plentiful helpings of wot wotting which is enjoyed anytime from noon until mid-evening. It should always be a roast of some description served with a full helping of veg and gravy and must not be commenced until at least three verses of 'God Save The Queen' have be sung.
Although in less formal surroundings (such as 99.9% of households) it's just an arbitrary word to describe a meal. Some people over here call the mid-day meal lunch, others call it dinner and some people call the evening meal tea whereas others call it dinner. You can only ever have 1 dinner though
