Well, I'm back now. My computer needed to be completely reformatted or something along those lines. So I'm now trying this challenge on my laptop with all the expansion packs and stuff packs (to Showtime) installed.
I'm pleased to be back and playing Sims 3 ... I just hope I can complete this in time for the start of Nano this year on November 1. If not, there's always next year's Nano to use it for, and another Fantasy book for Nano this year.
So, I'm using the one with Agnes C in it as my 'hood. That one had the Equestrian place on my starting property, so I moved that to the storage, bull dozed the lot and converted it to a residential lot. When it came to placing it elsewhere in the hood, I removed two of the small undeveloped lots lcose to the top of the mat, and replaced them with a larger one which was where I put the Equestrian centre. Not sure if that was the correct thing to do or not, I then added an extra lot where I put the equestrian centre. Does it matter which of those I do?
Oh ... and I love Agnes' skills but not her name. When she marries my founder, can I send her to the Town Hall and change her name to something that isn't Agnes?

Edit: Blast it! I thought for some reason we started with 2,100 not 1,800 simeloens ... so time to restart.
