Day 1084
Day 1084 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Word has gone round the kitchens: Truman Beaumont is to be given his favourite, and no bill. The queue at the bakery has reached the door. Nobody minds; it is that kind of queue. Fern Gorse is not currently speaking to Milo Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Battle of the Noticeboard reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
