@JulesDarling sorry for the late reply, been hopping around time zones & a little jet lagged. Love your single red tulip, laughed at the plausibility of a squirrel conspiracy too (I don’t have squirrels in Australia so I totally get my tourist on and gush all over them when I see one overseas, my favourite are the Scottish ones because their tails are three times the size of them and I’m constantly amazed I don’t see all these toppled over squirrels due to the obvious weight disadvantage of those tails lol 😂). Alliums, like gladiolus, hate winds because they’re so top heavy, they are fantastic to grow, but if you ever try to grow them get a mix, don’t settle on what you see in photos online, because they are advertised/sold at different sizes and colours but depending on the age of the bulb and your soil they can grow differently, for me, for example, my ambassador alliums are twice the size of my globemaster alliums even though the globemasters are suppose to be the largest, so try a bunch first before you settle on one, they are amazing but stink of onions if you pick them or their leaves break, they’re just giant chives lol. Waaaah could talk forever! Love fellow gardeners 😍✌️
If EA staff read this, this is why I got upset when the new plants cost simcash, as a gardener I always pimp out gardens in these type of games so seeing a whole bunch locked behind simcash is pretty mean spirited, you could have made like one tree coin base at least 😤
@JulesDarling 😐 you triggered my jealousy trait lol 😂 *whines* I want visiting squirrels! Unfortunately I’ve always lived in areas of Australia with pretty vicious wild life, my youth (at parents place) was on a beach where great whites were always in land, you could sit on the balcony and just watch them glide up and down the shore line, giant f***ers too, I mean the big ones that the others swam away from, we also had king browns (snake) and funnel webs (spiders) in the yard... 😵and sometimes downstairs inside the house. Later when I moved around I became a spider magnet, red-headed mouse spiders, red backs, white tips etc etc, now I live with my husband in a alpine region and we have a grumpy koala that growls like a demon if you get too close to his area, however the saving grace is early, like 2-3am early if you’re lucky we do have giant gliders which are huge like pale teddy bears... but like who is up at that time?! so yep I’ve totally romanticised everyone else’s experience with their wildlife, like you and your squirrel. The ones I’ve seen have lead me to believe they have such huge personalities, I really love them.
I do grow roses but it has taken me years and I still struggle with black spot and mildew, since I’m alpine the air is heavier with moisture so they really need to be spaced out to breathe but I know they grow because the property down from me has the rose garden dreams invented, honestly she’s managed to sway train her roses so she has the perfect picturesque rose bushes then it’s framed by this fence of roses with the sways in the air 😑 I want roses like that! I was told if you can grow lavender you can grow roses, make sure you buy healthy bare rooted roses, prepare the soil a few weeks prior to buying/planting as they are ferocious feeders to begin with, don’t prune them for the first three years and plant them at the right time with space, so no plants growing near their base, they love iron so when you plant them plop in some store bought iron tablets into your watering can and give them a iron drink, do that after every prune (but not for the first 3 years, don’t know why but I was told that and it definitely made a difference) Don’t give up, like peonies they have a bad rep for being hard to grow but they’re really easy once you get to know their likes/dislikes.
I love heather, I visit Scotland a few times a year (mostly Skye) and heather is a hardy little plant that smells so sweet and lovely and grows like wild fire. Hot tip is try it first in a pot or a small section as the fragrance is polarising (some find the scent too unusual, like it tickles the nose) but if you end up loving it go for it. If you get frosts they can look dead while in the dormant stage but they always come back. They are fantastic in home made soaps (if you go nuts over the scent.)
😑😑 I don’t want to stop fangirling but got to run. ✌️💐
Hello, friends. I didn't realize I've been away for two weeks now. Still resting. I hope everyone is still here and doing well!
Just wanted to let you know I'm still active in-game, but I understand if you need to remove me from your friend list to make room for active forum members. I can request a re-add when I return and wait for a slot.
Also, I changed my second Sims Mobile username from "HouseofGlass" to "Mirror House," so that's me. I'm still active in that account, too, but please feel free to remove it from your friend list as well if you need to cull.
Hugs & black hearts to each and every one of you.
@VintageStarlette ((((((Hugs)))))) Aww Vin, I would never remove from my friend list!! As if!! Take all the time you need and I'll be right here waiting for you!! Know that you're loved and in my thoughts daily!! 💜💜💜
@VintageStarlette Pfft!! You could leave for months and still be on my list. You cant get rid of me that easy! 💟🖤
@VintageStarlette <hugs><hugs> ❤️❤️ I won't take you off my friends list unless you tell me too. Miss you so much. Take care of yourself - I hope to see you soon.
@VintageStarlette I would never remove you. You were one of my first Friends. Feel better. 💜
@VintageStarlette I miss you. It's awfully "quiet" here without you. I was just thinking about you and hope you feel better soon. 💜😷💜
@themummyof4 Mummy, I just read "Moving Around" and it was awesome. I laughed out loud about Anselma's preoccupation with looks. Especially considering how my boy Sims look after turning into adults. Lol.
Now I can't wait to read the next chapter. What is in store for Anselma and Ralph...You always leave me in suspense. ☺😋
I need help please!!
Can someone please walk me through how to share a link to another thread when trying to answer someone's questions?

This is how I do it, there might be different or better ways.
1) find the thread you want to link.
2) in the address bar, select it and copy it
3) go to the question where you would like to link it.
4) click on the reply button
5) In the compose window, click on the link icon.
6) Paste the address you previously copied into the URL field.
7 optional) you can change the text or add instructions but if you aren't sure what you are doing, don't.
8) submit
Just testing to see if I can get this link thingy to work!

@BlueWizardRob Thank you so much!! I wanted to answer someone's question, but I really needed to be able to give a link. You're so good at explaining things. Thanks for the pic too! That helped.
@BlueWizardRob Is spot on, but for anyone on a tablet or smartphone, you can copy the URL and then when you go back to the thread you want to paste the link in, compose your post and press the screen to bring up the ‘past’ option and press it. The URL will be linked automatically.

@Finealta That's the way I do it too! 😊
