Eorling Mead Hall Planning/Discussion Thread

Oh righty ho, well Kara and Frodides would both have him for a couple of hours. I'd say shared though as they're generally in the same place at the same time! So 2 hours doing kitchen duty. Washing dishes, peeling vegetables, maybe learning to cook.

Modtryth and Stigend have the old mare, Snowstreak.

As to what Modtryth could do with Javan, she wouldn't mind having someone helping her with the shopping stuff. (Bearing or loading the goods etc.) Annoying work yet that would get him to town from time to time, so not the nastiest of duties for a child. Of the nastier duties, I think Modtryth & Ginna & Rowenna would welcome his aid in doing the laundry and cleaning the hall, but that might be too much of "women's work", or what do you think?

The more demeaning and drudgelike, the better. Thanks for all your replies.

Okay, I'll post the new Day with thoughts back to court day (which is the day after the last one we've written).

Post is up. I've also updated the Timeline: http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showpos...postcount=1595
