Actually, to me, 'supper' sounds very 'posh', or, perhaps, pretentious. I've only ever heard 'supper' from 'posh' Brits, never from Americans (other than, as I said, growing up - 'supper' was a cookie at bedtime!).

everyone up here in Maine seems to say Supper instead of Dinner....sounds weird

Sarah

Is "lupper" a typo or do you really call it lupper?

And don't forget being a kid in the 70's/early 80's - when you went out to the token Berni Inn it was always called "Going Out For A Meal"...

I'm from Gloucestershire and it was dinner and tea when I was growing up.

Nah -- comes from the insomnia that leads me to sleep in past "brunch" and have to go for a meal between lunch and supper. I came up with the word on my own, but apparently so have others:

Your sister insomniac.

I assumed you were referring to the terms 'Lupper' and 'Linner' made famous in the Seinfeld episode "The Invitations", with guest star Janeane Garofalo. In it, they had this exchange:

Jerry: More cereals? that's your third bowl today, you had it for breakfast and lunch.

Jeannie: Hey! So what's the deal with brunch , I mean that if it's a combination of breakfast and lunch.

How comes there's no lupper or no linner.

I never realized till now that she mentioned lupper as well as linner!

Snap! Am also from Gloucestershire, and it was always dinner and tea. When working in Bristol though, it was lunch and tea. Odd considering how close they are. Here in IA though, it's lunch and supper, it confuses me! Supper is bourbons and milk before bed.

Sue

Its totally another world down Bristol way

I seem to remeber when at school the bell would ring for Dinner time at 12pm, and remeber you either stayed or went home for your dinner lol

OMG !!!!!!!!!!!!! That brings back memories!

Growing up, we ate out only once a year and Prawn Cocktail was some fancy, magical treat! I don't think we were allowed to order steak ... (too expensive). Nowadays, since my g/f and I can never agree on what to eat, (and hate doing dishes!) we eat out almost every night (or eat leftovers). Our fridge looks like a student's fridge - beer, wine, leftover containers!

Nowadays I have a hard time taking 'Prawn Cocktail' seriously - even though it can be done very nicely.

I am probably showing my age but, when we went out on our annual family meal ( a huge treat), I remember the starter choices for the A' la Carte being Prawn Cocktail, Pate or orange Juice. I always had the orange juice, and was so impressed when it came served in a wine glass.
