Brilliant casting in Shakespeare performance.

How to build a medieval castle. (Link is to a 58-minute YouTube video that I found very interesting. Save some times and read about it here.)

Little did I know when I got up this morning that I was going to end up immersed in a video on how to build a castle…
Thanks!

I have watched parts of the video before. I have questions – specifically, it takes 25 years to build a castle. So, you show up, start at the bottom of the ladder, get trained in waterwheels or window-carving or whatever. 25 years later, the castle is done, what next? I would think your wife probably has roots there, and what about your kids? If a medieval person made it to 20, he would probably make it to 45 (stats I read are about men). So, you just pack up and wander off in search of the next castle being built? Are there headhunters scavenging? Do you hang out and build chimneys? Switch to raising goats?

Wow, that sounds like a couple of great Shakespearean casting choices!
