If I wished to try their bulbs where can I get small quantities from?
I am not so loaded or so sure that I would order a case direct from Ireland

Well Bill Cress lists them on his site, but by case lot only as well. You might ask him if he has smaller quantities.

I just placed a $1.00 US bid for a dozen Sylvania #25 flash bulbs that will close in just a few hours. I paid $2.33 for a dozen bulbs in the mid 70s. The value of the US dollar today makes that bid a pretty good price! Of course, It's eBay the best market place for those type purchases.
I won a Graflite Jr. battery tube a couple weeks ago on it for $1.00.
Where else can you do that?

Update: I didn't know you were thinking so big, the PF50s match up to the GE #11s.

They have PF200's at 3.5UKP each but will not post them, which doesnt help me any.

i'd even consider buying a full box of 12
from a stockist in the UK that had them.

If I lived in the UK, I would make a point to visit Photographic Hire Ltd. and ask face to face to buy or at least see the Meggaflash Bulbs. It is a lot harder to say no face to face. If I struck out, next I would plan a family trip to Ireland and a visit to their factory. Someone should be willing to help.

We also have limits on certain types of products that can't be shipped by USPS.
