Clue/Question: The men who volunteered to reenact medieval warfare on horseback were – – –
Answer: FREELANCERS
(Gotta love it! People really seem to love this “romantic” time period. The times of heraldry and chivalry. We have an annual Renaissance Fair around here that has been going on for over 40 years. And, there’s that chain theme restaurant called Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament. There are 9 of them in the U.S. and 1 in Canada. We celebrated my son’s – 8th or 9th – birthday with one of his school friends, at one not too far from us. Considering it was dinner and a show I thought that the price was fairly reasonable. But life in the middle ages was tough even for the privileged. Medicine/healthcare was very primitive back then, and when you couple that with really poor hygiene – when folks started using perfumes – a lot of people succumbed to disease. And, the majority of folks were dirt poor, and there was little law protection. Not the best of times.
All four clue words are on the world famous ralis95 clue word database. All four of the jumbles appear to be new though. I had the hardest time figuring out that “cleinh” was “lichen”. I had to back into it. Fortunately, there was just enough in the first eight letters of the answer letter layout for me to see the final answer. The cartoon knight calling his lances “spears” was a BIG hint to the final answer. But overall the answer letter layout was an earnest eleven letter jumble.
Fun cartoon of the jousting reenactment characters. I like the king and queen in the gallery viewing the tilting proceedings. Jousting was a dangerous “sport” exhibition, with some of the participants getting severely injured, and even killed. A step up from the old gladiator games, but full of pageantry. Fun Friday Jumble. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
