Nope all these borders are very easy, with the possible exception of Bosnia.
These countries will automatically think that you have insurance because you are Brittish and will wave you through without fuss. Bosnia may be more tricky, but I had to cross the border (for about 500m) when I travelled down to Dubrovnik. I would not know what they were like if you cross at a different point.
All the other countries you mentioned are very close to being accepted into the EU and as such border crossings are very easy.
I would take extra care whilst staying in Bosnia, from fellow travellers I gathered that they stayed in gated campsites and the few that free camped (in vans, not tents) said they had a few minor problems with people attempting to open doors etc (probably thinking the vans were empty).
Good luck, Croatia is very beautiful (best go now before mass tourism spoils it) and like few places on earth. ____________________ Travelling around the world...a bit at a time. Where am I now? / Visit my BLOG

Don't PANIC! I said that the trouble they encountered was non-violent and non-physical. It was opportunistic. So I don't think you necessarily need to be worried about safety.
It was more a warning to ensure that you keep your wits about you and don't leave items unguarded, which is true of most places these days. Also it may be an idea to avoid free camping and stick to fenced/gated campsites (most are apparently).
I know you have done a fair bit of travelling, so I'm sure you knew this before. From the people I spoke to last year, the country is beautifully and the people friendly and quizitive (generally). It is very very poor, and you will see much evidence of this, so be prepared to see just how poor (financially) people can be.
Good Luck, don't forget to keep us updated of your travelling tales, I for one will be reading every word. ____________________ Travelling around the world...a bit at a time. Where am I now? / Visit my BLOG
