October 2023. Belgrade. Serbia. No, not THAT Nutshell. These foreign posts don’t get a lot of views because a) No-one else has been there and b) No-one else intends to go there. Oddly, it’s the unsung towns that get the most views. But in the last week I’ve referred to three posts from Ron, Duncan… Continue reading BELGRADE IN A NUTSHELL

CHILLTON – BELGRADE’S “HIDDEN” BAR
October 2023. Belgrade. Serbia. I saw “Serbia” was trending on Twitter last night, and assumed there’d been a surge in interest in my Belgrade blog posts, but sadly it was due to their Under-21s “sharing” 10 goals with England’s teenagers; You left us having ticked the big church, and about to tick the best rated… Continue reading CHILLTON – BELGRADE’S “HIDDEN” BAR
Храм Светог Саве
October 2023. Belgrade. Serbia. Back at the main Belgrade station on our second night, I somehow had to persuade Mrs RM to walk another 10,000 steps so I could visit a craft beer pub before we left Serbia in the morning. Luckily, she’d seen that Храм Светог Саве, the Temple of Saint Saviour, was THE… Continue reading Храм Светог Саве
Serbian Pub Cat Porn In Škripa
October 2023. Novi Sad. Serbia. We only had time for one “pub” in Novi Sad, and Mrs RM’s legs were about to go on strike, so I picked Skripa, tucked away between cathedral and synagogue in the heart of town. Google maps said Škripa was “as busy as it gets” at 2pm on Tuesday, but… Continue reading Serbian Pub Cat Porn In Škripa
IT’S NOT TOO BAD IN NOVI SAD
October 2023. Novi Sad. Serbia. Mrs RM had spent hours researching ways to explore the unexplored Serbia, but (not for the only time) a trip got cancelled late due to lack of bookings. Travelling through central Europe early October has its benefits (cheaper, plenty of accommodation, potential of great weather), but you take a risk… Continue reading IT’S NOT TOO BAD IN NOVI SAD
BLUZ I PIVO, BELGRADE
October 2023. Belgrade. It was Mrs RM’s fault. It always is. After a 4am start at Luton Airport car park* and a thorough exploration of central Belgrade I was up for an early night and a catch-up on the blog, but on the way for a look behind Skadarska for a Chinese takeaway, Mrs RM… Continue reading BLUZ I PIVO, BELGRADE
DOGMA BREWERY, BELGRADE – FLATTERY IS THE BEST FORM OF IMITATION
October 2023. Belgrade. Just back from the Balkans with a thousand photos to be dutifully categorised into posts about craft beer bars, buses that make you queasy, pub cats, churches and unpronounceable menu items. If you’re after a blog about plain Shropshire boozers, best come back in a week after my trip to Wem. Day… Continue reading DOGMA BREWERY, BELGRADE – FLATTERY IS THE BEST FORM OF IMITATION
RUZICA – CELEBRATE THE BULLETS
October 2023. Belgrade. I wanted to send this post from Sarajevo airport but the plane loaded early and Mrs RM had a seat so far away from me we became “untethered”. Not a metaphor. Back to those reviews of churches you’re waiting for. We only spent one day in Belgrade, but it seemed a place… Continue reading RUZICA – CELEBRATE THE BULLETS
TETHERED TO MRS RM IN BELGRADE
October 2023. Belgrade, Serbia. Mrs RM had booked flights to/from Belgrade and Sarajevo at their cheapest (£20 ignoring cost to the planet), but we’d left it till the week before to even think about itineraries, hotels, transport, cash (no joy, closed currencies) and whether or not Baa Baa Toure would come with us. I’d been… Continue reading TETHERED TO MRS RM IN BELGRADE
BACK TO THE BALKANS
October 2023. Belgrade, Serbia. Mrs RM is one of those irritating “tickers“, you know the ones, the sort who see a list and want to “complete” the set. Who’d do that ? She’s determined we’ll complete all the countries of Europe next year, and then all the countries of the world except Russia, Belarus and… Continue reading BACK TO THE BALKANS
