Day 1591

Day 1591 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Jonah Ferris and Dot Ferris no longer need a reason to call round. Edie Gorse is not brilliant at keeping a notebook about the pond, and is no longer pretending to be. It stuck anyway. Iris Brody is not currently speaking to Bram Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Battle of the Noticeboard takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
