Can't say how difficult it'll be in Ireland as I've no experience of film
buying over there.
However, when you get to England, the flagship Jessops store on 'New Oxford
Street'
near Tottenham Court Road definitely stocks Velvia at the very least (kept
in a fridge).

There is a Jessops on The Strand which is slightly closer to where you're
staying but
it doesn't make a lot of difference and I don't know what film they stock.
Snappy Snaps
might also be worth a try, there's one near you in Hertford Street (St
James/Mayfair area).
The one on Baker Street has a reasonable selection of film but it's not kept in
the fridge
(and it's damn hot over here at the moment)

Be prepared to pay more than the mx2 or 7dayshop websites though.
Good luck.
Jason.
