Hi all, I'm back. Thanks for the replies -
Justiniel - it was a work-do, but I had time to look around a bit;
L4 - classified, yes, but Ad Mech count as 'need to know' ?
Warmaster - well, it can get hectic at times, and the long waits at airports are ugh.
Overall - it was a great trip, and although Rok and co. from Univerzita v Ljubljana (or so) were terrific hosts, the country itself is a really nice place, with 70% forests and mountains (ok, so what, but remember we have practically 0 forests and less mountains..); bears; an incredible cave system; castles; a lively enough univ town etc etc.
There were some weird moments, though:
1 - At Munich, a huge bearded guy walked up to the flight boarding gate counter, whacked a thick bible onto it, asked (i) do you know when the flight to (?) leaves and (ii) do you know when your judgement is? ... 
2 - I learned that the Pri Mraku inn (where I was staying) name means 'Inn of darkness' or something to that effect!!  These sadists put my room in the fourth floor attic and never included a lift, in spite of instructions warning you not to use it in case of fire...
3 - One road sign clearly said ' Epic'
4 - I found the Epicentre! It exists in the real world! It's a bookshop in the main shopping street in Ljubljana - never knew we were that much into books, at least not into books lacking EA stuff, orks, strategy, technical military stuff, tanks, kite boards.... well, you get the idea.
All that, with Warhammer FB Imperial style castles, cats, and a cave system putting Moria to shame! Well worth a visit.
Dobre dan, all!
