Err no. He turned a nasty little low level insurgency into a refugee exodus of a million people and a desperate escalation of brutal tactics by Serb security forces, meanwhile devastating the infrastructure of Serbia to little end, except to suck up to the States in their bid to give NATO a raison d'?tre in a post cold war world in the face of the threats of European alternatives (a pattern he'd repeat).


He lucked out when milosevic saw the writing was finally on the wall for him, but also gave rise to preemptive preventative war which gave us, err, Iraq.


Anyway, let us never speak of him again, it's what he thrives on. I think the world should just ignore him and he will be in a living hell that we can all appreciate.

Errr a little bit fanciful to say the least. Yes Blair is as responsible as the US for the botch job in Iraq, but are you seriously blaming the conflict in former Yugoslavia on him?


Kosovo is primarily populated by ethnic Albanians who are unhappy with Serb rule. Both lay historical claim to Kosovo and those are tensions that go back to well before Blair was even born.

    • They’ve backed away from pretending they produce their own goods recently. That claim sat at the centre of the misdirection for years. They’ve now accepted they can’t sustain it, so they’re beginning to highlight the local independent bakeries whose products they actually sell. The business is essentially a courier model running on a slim margin.
    • Another sparrow hawk visor to our cherry tree at the weekend.  Our robin survived, but we may be a sparrow down.     any thoughts on bird feeders & bird baths with the current bird flu?  I try to wash out the bird bath most days when at home, but not on the 3 days in a row that I’m in the office & the bird feeders rather less regularly. Would it be better not to have at all (as my partner thinks)? 
    • OOOPS. My daughter just had to pay a five pound fine. I hadn't put a stamp on it. I remember wondering whether to use a  first or second class stamp,  and clearly when I posted it I still hadn't decided (but sadly didn't notice). I feel really bad for suspecting a postie might have  opened it.  Sorry posties.
    • If anyone is thinking about selling one, please reach out 🙂
