I don't start work until 10am, and as I live so close to work I don't get up until 9am. I have a light breakfast (a bowl of cereal or a piece of toast) just before leaving for work, have lunch about 2pm and then dinner about 9pm. I must say it is much easier to keep those sort of hours living either on the continent or in Edinburgh where everything is open much later in the evening. I used to find it quite odd in England (with the exception of London) to find that by the time I'd gotten round to having dinner there was no point in going out because everything was shut! I often wonder how dismayed unsuspecting Spanish or South American tourists must feel on arriving in England and going out for dinner at 11pm only to find that all the restaurants are shut and that bars either don't serve food or stopped serving it hours ago!

and still finish at 4pm of course, no drop in salary either! Dinner at 11pm? that's bedtime!

Must say it has improved around here in the last few years, lots of restaurants and bars around the Uni now which are open all hours of the day and night and serve all sorts of delicious cuisine, very tempting to eat out every night but can't afford it.
