LOL..so, do we consider either a marques, a highland barbarian or a scottish laird forms of occupation? I mean I'm sure barbarianism and lairdship work is quite tiring! LOLTitles can also serve as employment, e.g. a Queen/King. LOL Am I trying too hard?? LOL
LOL! No you are not trying too hard! I would consider a marques or a Scottish laird as occupations!
