Q: ‘Silk Road’ by Ivor Whitall describes first trip 1975 Maribor Zagreb Belgrade as broken tarmac ‘main road’ (two lane blacktop). By the time of my trip in 1984 there was a lot of four-lane and a lot of Autoput.
My 1960s map shows a thick blue line Zagreb-Nis but this could mean anything.
Does anyone remember Autoput construction 1975+ ?
Q: At the Hotel Nacionale in Belgrade, does anyone remember the waiter ‘George’ ? Was he the waiter whose brother worked at the Bulgarian embassy ?
Q: Ivor Whittall in ‘The Silk Road’ mentions the ‘infamous’ ‘Catsback’ at Limburg Services. What was it ?
