    I've heard that all of Northern Ireland closes down on a Sunday. I was planning on doing the north antrim coast on a sunday. With a tank range of 150km. Is this crazy, or will I find loads of petrol stations open?

    Yes, it is crazy, you will find plenty (almost all) petrol stations & shops & cafe's etc open especially in the larger towns (Coleraine, Portrush, Ballycastle etc.). Apart from large supermarkets & shopping centres etc. who are generally open from 1pm to 6pm, something to do with the square footage of the building & N.I.'s Sunday trading laws, many of the smaller shops, especiallly the touristy ones will be open.

    I was in belfast on sunday about 3 years ago and it was a ghost town. All the main shopping streets were deserted. Someone said it too either here or the motors forum. Anyway, looks like it's not an issue, cool.
    North antrim coast on sunday! :)

    Big shops can't open until 1, and most do.
