A Humorous and Amusing Reflection Of Life In 1066.

The Saxon Times allows for the free flow of imagination to express what life was like in 1066 and the newspaper format allows for advertisements and special editions such as The Food Section and Ask Brother Ealdred.

A fascinating and momentous year, etched in our minds from school,

Three Kings and three great battles and the most famous battle of all The Battle of Hastings that changed England forever.

But I would still like to know more about the lives of Saxons and Normans in that tumultuous year.

What was England like, what did they eat and drink, how did the treat their aches and pains, survive the seasons and pay their taxes.

This talk is an interesting and amusing take on 1066, drawn from the available historical resources.
