It was, I admit, an obscure destination for a weekend break. An unsmiling Serb in a bar was so bemused by the presence of two Brits in his nation’s capital that he seemed to believe we were spies. My answer to his question “How did you get here?” (“Aeroplane”) did not humour him.
But despite its size, population and economy standing dwarflike next to the London giant, I did not feel like I was “downsizing” on my trip to Belgrade. Quite the contrary.
