discovered the other day when he actually made the boys' tea the other

It was horrid.
As far as I know, only Thibetan tea is normally made with salt,
and it's reputation certainly is that all westerners find it

Dinner, then, you damned southerner.

Er, no, supper :-)

Surely it goes...
Breakfast
Lunch
Afternoon tea (tea and cake about 4pm, still popular in some parts of the
Empire)
Dinner
Supper (late in the evening, cold meats, bread cheese and pickles etc)

Most people miss out afternoon tea and supper these days although there
appears to be some that have started to call dinner supper which it
certainly isn't. I think Nigel Slater is one such from watching a program
of his.
