A guy I spoke to at O2 Ireland said it was simply something like O2 Ireland and O2 UK not being set up to send/receive yet and eventually everything to everywhere (within reason?) would work. I find that a bit hard to believe this late in the game, but..
Worth a call to the relevant CS I suppose.
FWIW, my mate in Scandanavia has no probs getting SMS/MMS from me in the UK.

Thanks for the tip, I'm just pleased it works and i'm interested to see if i get billed for it in 48hrs or not as i'm sure i was getting charged 10pence when i did it from home and nothing at all when i did it from work which is in a 3G area rather than just a GPRS area at home.
