    Hello,
    that means you are late; you should give an answer very quickly, it's high time you answered.
    see you

    Hello.

    High time : the time has come when delay is no longer possible.

    This expression (it's high time) is often used in this structure in British English, to say that something is urgent.

    « It's high time you got ready or you'll miss your train.»
    « It's high time you got a job.»
