We Try to eat dinner as a family every day.
Dinner in the evening is the only way. Same when I was a kid at home growing up. Dinner was held back to let as many sit, chat and have dinner as a group. That’s going back over 40 years so I don’t think it’s a “new” thing.

Same as this - dinner was always after school, around 5

Now that I am working from home, dinner is still 5 - we could eat at 1 as we are both at home now, but the kids are in school. I prefer to sit down and everyone eat together. Was always a thing in our house growing up, and I really liked it...

Here is a question - did ye have specific places at the table, that you would always sit at?
I thought everyone did, but it seems some families dont?

Yes.
We have specific places but in two layouts. If we’re eating a shared meal like pizza or finger food we sit different pattern than if we are having a regular dinner on a plate setup.

What's work?

Stomach empties in 2/2.5 hours after eating. Doesn't mean you eat 7 times a day. Generally four, breakfast and dinner 5/6pm are the biggest.

Not yet. A friend dropped his one to us yesterday evening. He has his cows dried off so isn't using it at the minute.
