Noreen, what happened to the nose of your smiley?

Fibula, thanks for the fast answer!

I know about the ferry, I used it already (1999).
While waiting for it, I parked my bicycle with its red panniers next to one of these red post office columns - and some passer-by asked me whether I worked for the Royal Mail ;-)

1 hour is not too bad for going from Belfast to Portaferry by bus...
