    You want to try and space your meals about every 3 hours depending on the number of hours you are up in a day. Tea is not considered a meal. (well not in the States anyways.) You'll want a meal right after working out, but one that is quick to absorb.

    I would say
    8:45
    11:30 (preworkout)
    (Time??) Post workout
    Break 1
    Break 2
    Prebed
    I added the other because its almost 3 hours after your first meal until you lift.

    I would eat at every break...

    eg: If you train at 11am -
    8.45am - breakfast. Carbs, protein and fat to slow digestion before training.
    12.10pm - PWO shake. Carbs and protein.
    12.45pm - PWO meal. Carbs and protein.
    3pm - (just before starting work) Carbs, protein, fats
    5.15pm - Carbs, protein, fats
    7.15pm - Protein, fats (+/- carbs if you want them/need them)
    9.45pm - protein, fats
    11.30pm - protein, fats

    If you train at 12pm:
    8.45am - breakfast. Carbs, protein and fat to slow digestion before training.
    11.30am - Pre-workout shake (carbs + protein)
    2.10pm - PWO shake. Carbs and protein.
    3pm - (just before starting work) Carbs, protein.
    5.15pm - Carbs, protein, fats
    7.15pm - Protein, fats (+/- carbs if you want them/need them)
    9.45pm - protein, fats
    11.30pm - protein, fats


    You are bulking so a little more frequent eating is not going to hurt you... and just make your meals slightly smaller than if you were eating every 3 hrs.
