Never heard this: surely it's "make sure you're home for lunch" in the morning and "make sure you're home by tea" in the afternoon? You can tell that you're not from Moulsecoomb, if any of us were sent out with a packed lunch, it would have been nicked by 10.00 :)

There are those of us who don't travel to work by car. I can tell you that when you cycle to the station in winter, it IS a bit parky out there (and I'm not afraid to tell people). It does confuse the Americans in the office though

Always thought the Sussex version was " a bit hutchy"
