Located on Lombard Street in London, Lloyd's is host to sailors, merchants, and the nouveau riche in abundance, while politicos and foreign emissaries also claim the coffee house as a safe haven. News can be heard simply by joining a table, and pamphleteers are also known to leave their tracts out in the open. That the coffee-house also provides a venue for the auctioning of cargo and ships is a boon: much intelligence can be gained from learning what the aspiring bourgeoisie have begun to support.

This thread will be used by me to hint at actions that may have not been as secretive than they ought to, or to keep your abreast of random foreign events. Maybe I'll get bored and write my takes on your policies. As far as use you all can get out of it, this is a good place to spread disinformation or provide warnings about your actions, or maybe just RP. I will reward those things accordingly. Likewise, your courts/news threads are good for that too - lemme see that creativity, or what Machiavellian schemes you can contrive/con the others into thinking you're contriving.
