We just don't use that term in the US....TLS would probably know, since he's from the UK originally. Reminds me of a time I was invited to tea with Carl Palmer and his wife (I was doing some work for him at the time). I thought it was literally to drink tea.....and had stopped off for a meal just before I got to their hotel as I was starving. Had a beer with them instead. Tea isn't nearly as big a thing in the US either way
