It'll be fine. I've been going days between feeds, probably why my breads a bit shit at the moment

It should survive that, but if you have an insulated shopping bag I'd put in there with a big bottle of cold water. I've been keeping mine in the fridge lately as it has spoiled in barely two days with the 30 Celsius temperatures we've been having.

chill it in the fridge for a few days
feed it but more flour than water (this will slow it down somewhat)
keep in the coolest place possible

Im a yeast man so dont have any experience with this but I have seen a few websites mention having a starter 'back up'.
Which involves drying out some discard on parchment paper for a few days so you can clone your starter should something bad happen to it. Might be worth a go, just dont put the dry white powder in your hand luggage for the flight.

Any views on how to transport my starter during a house move from London to West of Ireland?
Probably 2 days of travelling, leaving London on a Wednesday morning and arriving on a Thursday eve.
Risky to feed as normal Wednesday morning, and feed again as normal on Thursday night?
