Can anyone around Mallow/Charleville let me know what the road conditions are like there?

mallow is not too bad yet. i'd say main M20 road won't be too bad.

why do i get a feeling that we will get none at all in the south east

So not fair, the South East needs a touch up of more snow! The North is really getting hit hard now going from what I can see on the latest charts.. I wreckon it would be better off down here with us in the SE!

I'm a bit confused here...

The www.sat24.com site has a bit heavy cloud over ulster that is heading & rotating in a SE direction, but all other images from other sites have little happening by way of snow for the east...

Not all cloud produces precipitation. What to happen tonight is all that mass up to the northeast will rotate anticlockwise and tumble down but the conditions wont allow it to dissapate quite so much as it is now hence the widespread snowfall predicted by the forecasters.
