    I guess that would be the easiest thing to do.

    Yep, that's the way to go. My advice would be to buy an Orange SIM if you'd like to call Ireland from the UK, as Orange only charge 20p/min to call Ireland from a PAYT phone! I think you have to give a UK address before using the SIM initially - I don't know if that's the same with any UK SIM card, though.
