After five years in the UK I can say the rain is one of the things I miss the most!

On an anecdotal note most of the CS graduates that I know are not in Ireland any more but are split evenly between the UK and Australia. Also, Dublin is obscenely expensive in my experience.

Being in the process of moving back from London, I can assure you that Dublin is not nearly as bad as it used to be (I lived there in 2007, and it was ridiculous then).
