12:00It is Wednesday lunch in Founders Park. Benches are being claimed diplomatically.
12:00A kite is stuck in the big park tree. A committee is forming.
13:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
14:00Fern Gorse has arrived at the store without the list. This has happened before.
15:00The town cat is asleep on the Town Hall steps. Municipal business reroutes around it.

16:00Wilf Tanner has come down with a cough with genuine ambition and is being kept in for observation.
19:00Someone is practising the same eight bars of piano again. The town has grown fond of them.
