    Just wondering if somebody could tell me how long it would roughly take to drive from Belfast (Queen's University) to IKEA? Need to plan ahead for this evening. Any help appreciated.

    About 15 minutes? Just follow signs for Holywood/Bangor and once you pass the big Tesco's at Knocknagoney, its a bit further down the A2 on your left.

    Again, thanks. Was just wondering - have to meet family out there today and was wondering when I should call for a taxi. Ill go about 30-35 minutes early, just taking traffic into consideration.

    Cheers lads.

    isn't Sydenham Road/Airport Road in the docks? You can't go that way unless you have a pass. Stay on the Sydenham *By-pass*, go past the City Airport and take the left at the flyover.

    Are there buses that go there, out of interest?
