Vetinari shrugged.
"I've only just discovered drinks with little umbrellas. I'll let it fall in a bit" 1/17
Some of the best scenes are where both he and the Patrician carefully dance around knowing.

Italy clearly improving.
We're clearly struggling.

Added a few more games and finished up entries for a bunch more on my big spreadsheet of Cool Free PC Games.
Considering that some are multi-game entries, that's over 350+ things to play, many of which are full, retail-worthy times.
