Actually, I'm also a Lochaber.
Its strange how people can get so hung up about these titles.
As a leaving present for a colleague who was thinking of buying a croft as he'd already made plans to retire to the Highlands, we bought him one and when he found out that it wasn't quite what he thought it was, one of the guys told him I had a plot about 15ft from him, he got very, very upset about it as he thought it was a unique title with the full trimmings.
When I pointed out that a 'real title' costs around £50,000 and rapidly upwards, he got even more annoyed...
