A free day for me today. Alison has
the last day of the Symposium. She has completely lost her voice
which is a little inhibiting for meetings.
I bought a pullover at the market
today. For me, not being a great shopper, this is an event. It is a
subdued pattern in the local very course wool. Fairly prickly but
not too bad as an over garment. 1200 dinars, around A$15. It is

and the first stop was ...

into Montenegro. There are exit and entry controls at the border
which is taken very seriously, perhaps demonstratively so for a
busload of foreign tourists, many vehicles seemed to be waived
...

Last Day of the pre-symposium tour.
Alison has come down with a cold and has hibernated in her room in
the hope it will give her some chance of a quick recovery I have
continued on the tour
There is more touristic visits than
technical Rubes visits and this causes a little grumbling amongst a
very few of the participants. Brankica, our organiser says that ...
