Day 1727

Day 1727 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Word has gone round the kitchens: Truman Beaumont is to be given his favourite, and no bill. Founders Park furniture still creeping left — is a bakery cart the culprit? Hal Brody is in Seahaven General after they discovered the loose paving slab outside the shop. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Everybody, Slightly Left takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
