Day 2456
Day 2456 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Orson Ferris has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. Ewan Callahan is not currently speaking to Bram Tidewater. Linus Tidewater is not currently speaking to Wilf Tanner. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
OPEN THIS DAY IN THE BROADCASTWhat was announced
00:00Orson Ferris has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain.
00:00The lights of Seahaven Springs flickered for exactly three seconds. The town clock is unbothered.
00:00The radio in Truman Beaumont's kitchen has been persuaded to play his favourite song. He is singing along, badly.
04:00Clouds drift in over the bay. The fishermen pretend not to enjoy it.
07:00The Bakery's fresh bread smell has reached the town square. Productivity plummets.
07:30Rue Callahan and Bram Tidewater no longer need a reason to call round.
09:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
10:00Saturday orchard morning is under way. Opinions about ladders are plentiful.
11:00The town ladder is on its fourth borrower this week and nobody is sure who owns it.
12:00A new book is chosen. It will also not be finished, and that is fine.
12:00Truman Beaumont and Fern Gorse kept their word and finished what they started.
12:00And so concludes: The Book Nobody Finished. The town will live with how it ended.
13:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
14:00A heron has taken up position at Miller's Pond and is refusing to be hurried.
15:00Clouds drift in over the bay. The fishermen pretend not to enjoy it.
15:14Orson Ferris and Ned Ferris postponed the matter, but neither has forgotten it.
17:00The sun breaks through over Seahaven Springs, precisely on cue.
18:00The light over Seahaven Springs this evening is almost unreasonably good.
18:39Orson Ferris and Ned Ferris kept their word and finished what they started.
19:00The tide is out further than usual. Iris Brody has gone to look at what it left behind.
21:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
22:00An unclaimed umbrella has been standing by the café door for three days.
22:16The Anchor's piano is being played by Toby Tanner, who cannot play piano.
23:00Commotion at The Anchor! Bram Tidewater and Ewan Callahan came to (very gentle) blows over a heated debate over the last pickled egg.
23:21Rex Callahan has begun issuing compliments in alphabetical order.
