Likewise! We started at 11am this morning and finished about an hour ago with hot sticky toffee and ginger pudding with Cornish ice cream. Although, I might go forth and eat the cheese as it appears no one else is fit to :D
Well, what we did today was wake up late, start opening presents around 1030am, have something to eat, and then eat the big meal around 530pm. (This is not a Doctor Who household.) So we only had two meals.
Of course I have no idea whether this is typical for Scotland, so this is not much of a data point.
In earlier years, the timing was determined by the fact that Dad would have to go and do the milking at around 3.30pm, so we have always been in the habit of eating at actual lunchtime.
You need a box for I have to decompress because my daughter fell asleep at 5:30 and slept through Doctor Who and then woke up and had a psychotic screaming fit as a result and is only partly mollified by iPlayer.
The bread question is ill-posed. It depends on context: Brown bread for dipping in soup or olive oil, multigrain for toasted cheese, and soft white with ham and mustard.
Oh, and for bread - walnut bread or ciabatta, made by me. Hell yeah. We currently have walnut, but a loaf and a half has vanished since I made it, so there's only a bit left..
Lunch today was mid-afternoon as breakfast was just before midday :) If it wasn't plastered all over the TV I could easily forget about the christmas thing. I'm going to be very confused on Sunday, as we've just done our Saturday on a Friday, and tomorrow will follow the run of a normal Sunday...
Also, I remember last year the BBC running this stupid story about 'WHY ARE PEOPLE ONLINE ON CHRISTMAS DAY?!?!11! IS THE FAMILY/SOCIETY/COMMUNITY DYING?! and that was the only thing in a long time that had made me feel really quite excluded. I am pretty happy for everyone who's celebrating at this time of year, and I'm very very used to explaining that/why I'm not really doing it, but the BBC? Surely they're supposed to be in some way, y'know, representative and respect diversity and that? Dudes, I thought, some people aren't Christian. Get over it.

Eating small quantities wins.

What, in an online poll? Inconceivable!
Additionally, I can't shift a belief that trichotomy is a medically-prescribed haircut.

Because the habit of having lunch hours late fascinates and horrifies me.

Although, we would have had supper by now only someone (*look pointedly at Dad*) switched the cooker off at the wall.

It's waiting for us on the Sky Player for when we've finished dinner and put Noah to bed.
DDR will be after that :->
