Does anyone know...

So, I'm in the final stretch of writing the Pros story that wouldn't end (it's now officially the longest thing I've ever written and heading firmly into novel length territory) and I find I need a couple of driving times. The British guidebooks I have are great on history and culture, but not so good on how long it takes to get around, and even Google has failed me.

So, does anyone know how long it would take to drive:
  • From Crossmaglen to Belfast
  • From Liverpool to London

    At least I found times for Belfast-Liverpool ferries on the net.

    Thanks in advance.

    Yeah, in it's hey-day I think... First one opened in 1958 according to my googling (cos ya got me curious!) I think a Road Chef was actually the first place in England I ever ate actually, on the motorway from the airport!

    And yeah, Bodie'd definitely make it there by noon... he'd easily miss rush-hour in Birmingham at 9 even, be past there by then *g*
