    No you won't be allowed to deadlift in socks, buttttt you are allowed wear slippers like these http://www.liftinglarge.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=34

    Obviously you don't have time to order a pair, so you could wear swimming socks if you can get your hands on a pair, or even ballet slippers. I'm pretty sure that once they have a rubberised sole you can wear them.

    Alternatively ask someone who's not lifting in your flight for a lend of theirs, or just wear whatever shoes you'd normally wear.

    Remember your socks have to cover your shins and stop below your knees. I think they're aiming to be finished in time for the a BBQ before/during tomorrow's Munster match so you should make it to your sis's birthday.

    Good luck, have fun and let us know what happens!!
