If you cannot get the Remo heads locally, my recommendation is to try the internet. Various places offer good prices for the heads. All you have to do is go into one of the web engines, i.e., yahoo, google, etc, and type either remo heads or conga heads and you will some info about stores. (I know you will have to verify the possible shipping costs and/or if they deliver to Ireland. Also, verify if getting them locally will be cheaper. Sometimes in items that do not cost too much the shipping will kill you and is perhaps better to get it locally since you might be saving just a few bucks).
Remember you have to decide if you want Remo Fyberskins or Remo Nu Skyns. The differences among them and the pros and cons have been discussed here all over. Check those posts.
Here is Pearl's chart on the recommended replacement heads for their congas and bongos. They have their own heads and Remo's.

I hope this helps!
