    When I worked in Germany the company canteen opened at 11:15, if you wanted to wait until noon there wasn't much choice left. After a while I adjusted my working day to 7:30 to 3:30

    Generally food times follow a strict format.

    Breakfast : When you get up / when you can be bothered

    Lunch : When you get up / when you can be bothered

    Dinner : When you get up / when you can be bothered

    Snacking : At any time if day.

    Drinking Coffee/Tea : It's a staple "British" thing to do - so, as above.

    I'm sure the kitchen staff at your club can accommodate you. Maybe have a drink at the bar first?

    In the end I had soup and a cheese sandwich. Started just before midday. Over by ten past.

    I have this issue every day and the answer is 'yes.'

    Because Bargain Hunt starts at 12.15 and I don't want to watch the end of Homes Under the Hammer.

    9.00 Second coffee of the day
    12.00 3rd coffee to kill any pre-lunch hunger
    13.00 lunch while watching BBC news headlines
    14.00 Decaff coffee
    16.00 Decaff coffee
    17.30 Exercise bike or out on bike
    18.30 Check emails
    19.00 Dinner
    20.00 Snack bowl of popcorn or popchips

    Obviously there's a good 5 mins flexibility either way in any of these timings.
    Any questions ?
    Good.

    I do like a bit of crumpet.

    Tomato soup, buttered wholemeal roll, apple, grapes and an orange juice for me.

    Already had 3 coffees as this morning.
    Breakfast was a Sports Direct mug of builders tea.

    Need to be careful here. The volume of liquid is such that if you accidentally knock it over you'll probably have to be winched off your roof by a Sea King.

    9.00 Second coffee of the day GOOD WORK:cool:
    12.00 3rd coffee to kill any pre-lunch hunger WHY NOT HAVE LUNCH? Lunch at 12.00 makes dinner at 19.00 unachievable !
    13.00 lunch while watching BBC news headlines ACCEPTABLE:cool:
    14.00 Decaff coffee UNACCEPTABLE:( No caffeine for me after midday for a man of my age to avoid an interrupted sleep
    16.00 Decaff coffee UNACCEPTABLE:(
    17.30 Exercise bike or out on bike C'MON PELOTON - YOU CAN DO IT!:mad: Peleton can **** itself with its' "bring your thunder b0ll0x". Use my 20 yr old exercise bike !
    18.30 Check emails WTF?:D Dropping off the radar at 17.30 but replying to emails at 18.30 suggests I'm contributing a longer working day .....
    19.00 Dinner ACCEPTABLE:cool:
    20.00 Snack bowl of popcorn or popchips NOT A PUDDING.;) Weekday rules so I can retain my impressive athletic shape. Pudding Fri-Sun, usually half a tub of ice cream a night !

    Good point about emails. Lark around all day and then look like you are putting in a long one.

    Any excuse for this best ever Peloton ad.

    Plan for today (first day of pre-Christmas healthy lifestyle):
    8.30 - 10.30: Dog Walk
    11 - 12: Swim
    12.30: Lunch of either soup or salad
    Afternoon: Couple of cups of tea; fruit snacks if craving sweet stuff
    19.00: Dinner (basic one tonight of sausages, mash, veg and gravy as no idea when teens are back as both out; veg ones for me as have given up eating pork, beef and lamb as first step towards giving up meat entirely)
    No after dinner snacks and no mid week alcohol, as part of healthy drive

    Reality of today:
    8.30 - 10.30: Dog Walk
    11 - 12: Hmm, got a bit of a sore throat - probably best not to swim - and what’s the point of starting a healthy eating plan on a Thursday? Tea and Toast then with butter, marmite and nutella instead (not altogether, I’m not a complete savage)
    Afternoon: Oops, now not hungry enough for soup or salad; will just have a couple of cups of tea instead - and had better eat up some of this chocolate that’s in the cupboard so that it doesn’t derail my healthy eating plan that’s starting on Monday
    19:00 Dinner
    After dinner: Since the healthy eating’s starting on Monday, might as well get a few mid week g&ts in while I can…

    Lunch was a roast beef and horseradish sandwich, grapes and an apple. No idea what's for dinner but generally Thursday is a pasta day. No alcohol sadly. Somebody just walked in with donuts, already had one and not ruling out another. 4th cup of tea the day incoming

    I honestly thought decaf coffee some sick joke made up to scare people like stories about spiders in the red tops or Jacob Reese-Mogg
