so, just to sum up...

"afternoon" / "low" tea: tea taken with little cakes at a coffee table at
4:00 with delicate old ladies and fine china

"high" tea: tea taken with dinner later in the evening

Nothing wrong with high tea, the only wrong thing is to call afternoon/low
tea "high" tea in the belief you'll be taking it with "high" class people.
