England/british style sims

Your experience of neighbours varies around the UK. Traditionally southerners are reserved whereas you can be standing in a bus queue in Newcastle and be chatting to the person next to you.

Villages are best for community but that is true world over. When the poor lived in slums and back to back terraces there was a strong sense of community. There had to be because it was so very crowded :)

But it isn't all grim. We have street parties to celebrate major Royal events and many places annual fetes, flower shows, fun runs and even carnivals. Our next major event will be Guy Fawkes :) :)

Where I live it really just depends who lives there. We have some neighbours who do their best to avoid us and then the other day one of the others just rushed over and left her young daughter here.

I think a country village would be nice. Would be awesome, a few pubs rather than fancy bars. I always go on holiday down to Somerset and there's such a strong sense of community there.
A pub, a small farm, a park consisting of just woodland/a flat field with maybe a football net and that's it. They also all gather once or twice a year in autumn where all the farmers and locals auction their produce - I've been, it's so funny!

I don't know how easy or difficult that would be to do, but I think it could come with a seasons-like expansion.

Just about all the phone boxes are gone. We still have red post boxes on street corners.

Objects for the game would have to include macs, wellies, and umbrellas.

I would love to hear Simlish spoken with a Geordie accent that would be amazing :)

Of course the food would have to include deep fried chocolate bars and black pudding :)

And the busses! Not necessarily red ( although where I live - which is veeery far from London has red ones). Fish and chips <3

@cornishoven *waves* the variety of housing within the UK is vast. My first house was a back to back which had been rendered and painted :)

Within sims games different style terraces should be possible not only the wall textures but styles as well. TS 2 had a mansions and gardens SP which had some really useful architectural bits.

Yup, I live in a 5 year old apartment. We were the first to move in, and they are not traditional at all xD

Who remembers Keeping Up Appearances??

Keeping Up Appearances was amazing xD I still see it on the TV every now and again :p

I think the only problem would be the lack of open world - couldn't have the busses, or taxis...
