Job dilemma

luckykaaI had an interview yesterday with a company in Manchester. It went fairly well, and the work I'd be doing looks interesting. I think it pretty likely they'll offer me the job.
I'm also looking at a job with a certain multinational based in Dublin. That's something that really excites me!
Problem - I will probably get an offer with Manchester in the next couple of days. Most likely tomorrow. I'd really like to see how the Dublin job goes though. They'll take at least a couple of days to get back to me with an interview date. That isn't going to be immediate, and they'll take a while after that to get back to me with an offer.
So there's the bird in the hand and a very juicy tasty looking one in the bush. I need to work out my options.
What are my option here?
I can't tell Manchester to hold off for that long.
I can say no and be hopeful. I can accept and tell the Dublin company that they snoozed and losed. That seems like missing out on something that I've been realy excited over. I can accept and then change my mind last minute. That seems like I'd be messing Manchester around a bit. Plus I need to spend time getting myself sorted. Any other options?
