For climate, weather and Sun I'd rather buy village in Sicily or strictly in mainland Italy (yes, I know Sicily is part of Italy).

Would South France or Spain also be bearable on a weather point, I fancy the Italian Lakes through to South east France as an area. We could call it "The Peoples Heartland Republic", elections to be held frequently with strict limits to terms in positions and major rules set by ballot.

you've got a mansion, 40 houses, a pub and a petrol station - and you can't think of anything HLers could do with it?

First of all, we could rename it ... :D ...

into Tsomborough, Tsomfield, Tsomlington, Tsomkirk ... err, but not necessarily into Tsombury or Abertsombie... :lol: ...

Then, we could have the band play every year on village foundation day ... ;D ...

And last, but most importantly !!!, we could build the one and only worldwide fanbase cooperative The Sisters of Mercy Museum there ... ;D ;D ;D ...

@being645 And we all know who would make the best curator for the museum!

The band play every year... I was thinking we could have them every Friday at the pub :lol:

The barmaid needs to be called Alice, and we need to rename the church.

Are you thinking of something with a "temple-y" ring to it?

It has a nice ring to it, no?

Aye it does.
Heartland would be a good name for the village, but Never Land could also work.
As long as it doesn't Flood. :innocent:

Well, personally, I wouldn't mow the lawn with it or take two after meals for heartburn, but that's just me.
