    I hope the new woohoo spot is a haystack. :D

    I wonder if the new woohoo spot is the barns for the cows

    I think that you may be right :)

    I’m guessing the barns & a haystack.

    For the new deaths I do obviously think one is death by chicken attack. I think one of the gurus said new deaths plural.

    I’m guessing maybe something like rabbit rodent fever but from a lama bite

    I also am dying for some new info this week. At least a livestream date would be nice and maybe some info here and there. New blog maybe?

    I was hoping that this song The Worzels "I've got a brand new Combine Harvester" might be more apt but at least Arnie's mod has a tractor!

    Or this one... Seeing as I'm an actual cider drinker.

    I LOVE THIS. In spite of what you and @elanorbreton said, you just made Chas & Dave a new fan. Go figure the old, weirdo music chick is gonna dig it though. :smirk:

    I also like Chas & Dave. My dad had all their albums. Maybe because he was a fellow East Londoner? (The true name is filtered because it contains a male part).

    Hopefully my sims can finally own a proper grocery store. I’m hopeful for some decent shelves.

    There are no grocery stores. 😕


    Yea it sucks they didn’t make one but hopefully I can use the GTW EP to make it.

    You can already have a grocery store with GTW. I have one that has all of the flowers, ready made meals, all seeds, all fizzy drinks, all veggies, fruits, and fish. I have been using it since GTW came out and adding more with new packs. No problems whatsoever and my sims can easily go buy some ambrosia when mistakes happen.

    I think it’s going to be the haystacks, they look kinda like the dumpsters from eco so they could just reuse the animation

    SimGuruRomeo mentioned in his tweets that Romantic Spot is hinted on in the trailer. The only romantic scene in it besides a random guy flirting with Agnes is at the beginning with a couple flirting in some romantic settings in front of old ruins. And though I'd like the hay woohoo to make a return I'm pretty sure this romantic spot is the new woohoo place. Like a Lighthouse was in Brindleton Bay.

    Besides I didn't spot any new hay stacks in the trailer. And the one at the side of new farm stall is way to little for a proper woohoo I feel.

    You'll be able to add a jam/preserve section with this pack. Put honey with them too.

    If you have a craft store then cross-stitch supplies could be added there too.

    I know that Sim Guru Romeo said the produce stall was the shop, but does that mean the store front shown behind it is just a shell? I really like the idea of creating a village shop as @EmmaVane outlines if it's possible.

    Same!
    @EmmaVane do you use the fridges or how do you sell the produce? 🧐

    I think you are both referring to @Mstybl95 's Grocery Shop, not mine?

    I don't currently have a supermarket, though I will eventually build one. When I do I'll MOO produce into crates or baskets for visuals, and set for sale from there (as an unowned shop), but for an owned shop I'd remove those from sale (keep as décor) and sell from the fridge for instant sales rather than ringing up each veggie individually.

    It must be a shell, though in the trailer it looks like sim is going inside it, but it could have been a side alley that sims were going through. There is another shell shop that sells pots and pans. I kind of like it. Wish sims could purchase plates and stuff from there to decorate their kitchens.

    That sounds great, there's a lot of possibilities for quaint little shops in this pack, knitting and embroidery supplies for instance. I hope there's a village lot that can be used for this purpose. :) I'm excited again.

    It might take time to make a profit from shops that sell small items. I always have an enclosed yard outside at the back selling the large stuff like swings and slides and expensive furniture inside to help out!

    They aren't great to run, but are still worth making as unowned shops for our sims to visit.

    Yeah, you're right about that, I remember it was a distinct challenge to make GTW shops profitable. Still, happy thoughts! :)

    These days you can also put in those kiosks from Komorebi and a lot of other useful stuff from other packs and it's made GTW a very useful pack to have now. I've started my Sims buying a retail outlet again and it's much more interesting to do.

    Hopefully we can get the window decor from live edit objects. They would look great on retail lots.

    I just thought about the pumpkin patch. The pumpkin patch will look wonderful on haunted lots.
    One thing I’m wondering is if the cottage pumpkins are compatible with the pumpkin carving station that came with Spooky Stuff. I’d like to think so, but I’m afraid SimguruRomeo will tell us that pumpkins from the pumpkin patch are not bred for carving. 🤔

    @calaprfy - I know the original version is on the gallery (Mstybl95), though it's part of a huge lot where you can buy most craftables from the game and looks like a town main street. I'm not sure if I made a cc free version, though.
