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.

    • That’s interesting, Dulwich Dweller; my 70 yr old neighbour told me 2 weeks ago that he’d left work early to go and book in person (being uncomfortable with all the online & app stuff) and was explicitly told that he needed to go away and book online. He’s not the sort of person to be insistent and, like a lot of older people, a bit embarrassed at his lack of digital ability, so he left without the appointment . This is my point about inconsistency, since his experience was quite different from yours. I’m beginning think that it rather depends on who, at Reception, you speak to on day…
    • Wow, never had a disappointing meal there since they opened.. guess like every establishment, depends on the chef.. All for allowing an off day - good of you to post.. much better than chains - had awful service at Gail’s for eg..be it cake and tea or a meal.. They are so nice and accommodating..       
    • "I tried Viet Flavour and was disappointed.  Their summer rolls especially were not at all good, stodgy and flavourless.  Pho-OK.  I'm hoping it will get better " Back in June I posted as above.  I am glad to report that either the first time I went the restaurant was having an off day, or they have upped their game.  I ordered the same things.  The summer roll was exactly as it should be, and had a lovely dipping sauce. The Pho was delicious.  My brother who was with me wanted to give it 10/10 but I always think you should leave room for improvement so gave it 9/10.  Staff were lovely.  I am so glad because I love Vietnamese food and now think I have a very good one just round the corner.  
    • So do I, and I started it!!!  I have changed title.
