Hot Date - How To Build Yours (Part 2) Online
Part two of my Hot Date editorial series is now online - see here! to check it out.

In this edition, learn how to build Marks & Spencer downtown (or at least, a very cut down version of it), make your own Angie's Den - within Sims limits of course (the ghost of Dirty Den is not included pronto) and even shove some gravel down and call it The Sims Blue Peter Garden (deceased George the tortoise complete with patronising speech from overpaid presenters not supplied).

Oh, and for anybody who doesn't get the references in this text - follow the Read More link).

Oh and in case you were wondering, Marks & Spencer is a well known retail shop in the UK which sells clothes like those found in The Sims for ridiculous prices. "The Ghost of Dirty Den" is a reference to a storyline from Brit soap EastEnders last year in which the character Den, supposedly dead for 13yrs, suddenly turned up one day alive and well. George the Tortoise - much loved animal personality on the BBC's Blue Peter programme who died in May 2004 after 22yrs on the show. Lasted longer than most of the presenters. The presenters of the time buried him onscreen in a casket and gave a patronising speech about the death of a pet. So now you know :)
