My first encounter of Bosnian queuing came when I was trying to buy two coach tickets in Mostar. I was just about to ask the attendant if they spoke English when this person appeared stage left, and with the swish of a cape, they were getting served before me.
Perhaps if I had known more than a handful of Serbo Croat words, I would have remonstrated with them. But, arguing in English was never going to work 😁
I skim read that edition and will re-visit later tonight as a few interesting titbits...... yesterday I took Bisera to Jajce to walk around the bridge area of the town with a few piccies in AVNOJ ulica and a prior lunch in Motel Plaza on Plivska Jezero ... it was our best trip out this lat year (that didn't involve others such as family) we have a new (15 year old lol) car a KIA Sorento which needed a run out and ended doing 225km round trip through Mliniste to Mrkonjic Grad (what a blissful route) coming back via Donji Vakuf, Bugojno, Kupreska vrata (not a blissful route ... I had over 400 pictures to try top and tail .. managed a few before hitting the sack and will re-engage later tonight ... DURING THE ROUND TRIP I stopped on the inter entity line (at Mliniste) like I had back in a UN vehicle in 2001 to take a similar Piccie and it looks quite good ... I shall try email you the 2 versions .... so all in all a great day David & Tamara
