A fascinating look at how people organize their days. From Darwin to drug users…
[The following is from Francis Darwin's reminiscences of his father.
It summarizes a typical day in Darwin's middle and later years, when he
had developed a rigid routine that seldom changed, even when there were
visitors in the house.]
| 7 a.m. | Rose and took a short walk. |
| 7:45 a.m. | Breakfast alone |
| 8–9:30 a.m. | Worked in his study; he considered this his best working time. |
| 9:30–10:30 a.m. | Went to drawing-room and read his letters, followed by reading aloud of family letters. |
| 10:30 a.m.– 12 or 12:15 p.m. |
Returned to study, which period he considered the end of his working day. |
| 12 noon | Walk, starting with visit to greenhouse, then round the sandwalk, the number of times depending on his health, usually alone or with a dog. |
| 12:45 p.m. | Lunch with whole family, which was his main meal of the day. After lunch read The Times and answered his letters. ‘ |
