What an adventful couple of weeks. Kevin Henderson's garden ruined by hail. All he could do was dispose of them. A greenhouse is needed! Unless it's a glitch.

Both him and Issac have the Sim-munity rewards and so do not suffer from colds or allergies. All my Sims will be equipped with this, it's a pain not to have it! Kevin's career is taking off, as he can sing in the rain without getting germy now.

The gigs are still the most annoying thing. They need to be longer!

A bug was crashing my game, the lags were waful. I changed houses to see if it applied to all. Conrad Anderson was next on the play list. I downloaded Sim Crazy's Grim Reaper and added him along with vampires Jessica Talon and her beau Heath Braxton. (Now Jessica is stuck here, moving her causes a crash! Grrrr)

I asked Heath to launch fireworks, he was in bed. I assumed he'd go outside. But he released them and they shot in the bathroom. Burning the towel stand I downloaded and toilet roll! The fire raged, Grim was cackling and a new wish appeared - Grim wanted to see Heath's ghost but for him to die by fire! That's not nice! LOL!

I wanted to move Jessica out to copy her to library, so she Beau Merrick and Vlad Schlick would be the vampires in the bin for all towns. But no, she's stuck there. Heath can move, so can Conrad and even Grim. They split away okay. (Oh well I usually get 1 Sim who gets attached to a lot.) 

Next house, as I wanted to try and split Jessica after I moved house. But no, she's still stuck. Robert and Hannah Newbie from Riverview are settling in. Now this is the coolest house with a purple theme. Robert is trying the acrobat career for me. Hannah's in politics. Robert is doing too well. So I've improved his fitness to help. But it happened, he got abducted by aliens - not by stargazing but simply walking home! Now they have baby - and Robert's career is on hold.

I've got Robert learning gardening so I can test out whether what happened to Kevin was a glitch or not.

Disabling memories has allowed Edit Town to work again! Yay! But Jessica is still 'stuck'. Also selling the free cars they got helped.

Sims added: My own version of Jared Frio from Sunset Valley. Mel from olivermypup (Again) and Tim and Kate McGee from NCIS from my own studio.

Evictions have been: Conrad Anderson, Craig and Emily Elson. Conrad's grave added to the graveyard!

After changing a lot of the town to simplify the passage, there's several new buildings. A big festival themed park, full of lots to do thanks to Seasons.

Autumn, Summer and Spring reign but no winter. I didn't want my Sims getting frozen as they move outside the house. Autumn is chilly and many appear to have colds? Is that a new feature? The Sims I've played had 'germy' moodlets.

Summer is the longest season with 16 days, then Autumn is 10 with Spring at 5. Spooky day was great fun. A new Everfresh supermarket complete with kissing booths and a haunted shack is the new hot spot in town. A lot of my Sims love going in the haunted shack.

I played with Kevin Henderson and Issac Luck who share a house. Issac got kidnapped by aliens upon using the new science lab! It was good to see an alien abduction, I've missed those! Then each night an alien seems to come visit the house. Issac has not become pregnant - thankfully. His budding romance with Sonoko Lee might've been ended.

I don't like the gigs that Showtime bring, Kevin can't do much if he has a gig. I must stay round the gig location five hours before he starts in order to get to sing 2 and a half songs. It takes so long to load. I've adjusted the coffee house to see if taking some of the seats out helps. If he goes anywhere else, he's always late. Kevin went swimming in the sea at the beach and by the time he got to the coffee shop, it was time to end. He spent a lot of time gargling water and testing the mike. Annoying!

Next time was better, I had him hang round the venue early. using his new electric guitar he wowed the crowd and is now Level 4 of the singing career. I don't think I'll be putting anyone else forward, Kevin and Pablo will suffice.

I made Tom Parker from The Wanted and changed to his house. I gave the Avilla sisters to help with money. Lynda is lovely and I'm trying to match make them. She has a part time gig at the bookstore. Lydia is awful - see her fate below!

I spotted the last thing on my list for Sims 3 - a diving board! Could it be true? They can dive? Yes, they sure can. Yay! I'm really pleased this has been added. Darts, hot tubs, pianos and diving board for me are must have for the Sims franchise. They should've been in the base game!!! Te telescope and flamingo were.

Tom has a regular job in the Music career. Can become a rock god? Lynda had a late night visitor. An alien dropped by, that was a suprise! They don't even have a telescope!

I moved the gym to the centre of the town. I deleted MN8 and the private club as I never use them. I'm going to design a new bar and club.

The Bridgeport I was playing has been deleted. Before I did, I moved several residents into the Sim bin to bring them across. Vlad Schlick, Steven Dallas, Christopher Steel, Gary and Julie Hobson, The Braxton brothers, Jessica Talon, Thornton Wheeler, Kimmy Knott, Bridget Steele, Rory and Amy Williams.

There's now six vampires in the town and ten celebrities! It's a growing community!

There's been three evictions: Lydia Avilla. She was rude several times and generally doesn't talk anyone; even her own sister! Darren Lott never appeared anywhere. Mimi Olivia wouldn't interact with anyone and kept to herself? She hung around crowds but never engaged? Is she shy??? Oh well - they're out!
