Day in the life of a lord

dawn
Hear Mass, followed by a breakfast of white bread and wine.

morning
The lord would speak with his general manager for his manor. His lady would perhaps do embroidery. Knights and pages would practise fighting.

10am
Lunch was normally half-a-dozen simple dishes, but if the lord was entertaining guests there would be many more dishes as well as entertainments such as jesters, fools and jugglers.

afternoon
Hunting or chess if the weather was bad.

late afternoon
Prayers, then a meal. If there were guests, this would be magnificent.

after supper
Listen to the news and stories brought by travellers or just sit and talk.

bedtime
When the lord decided he wished to go to bed, the household would have a light supper; say prayers and go to sleep.
