Now we'll have to put up a gate -- keep the riff-raff out...

Hi,

Guess who's landed gentry now?

The closing was really pretty simple and the paperwork wasn't too excessive.

But what I didn't know was that the Maynard levy not only requires that I have sword, shield, and armor for myself, but I have to supply [livejournal.com profile] asciikitty with a pole-arm and I also have to support 3 men-at-arms (either with my own equipment, or hired warriors). All this and they can require my service for up to 45 days during the summer.

I dunno if the tax write-off offsets all this...

With a kilt and a claymore...

Once I put on my kilt and put the claymore across my back, and the rapier on my hip, I'm easily worth three men-at-arms. Let me know when you need me to show up.
