    Ok, that's a start, although miles from me so I can't help now. :p Have you checked the local offies? If they don't sell it, they may be able to tell you where you can get it. Do you want any old absinthe or something ludicrously alcoholic and expensive (the latter will probably be harder to find)? As noted in earlier posts, some of the major supermarkets may stock a brand or two.

    You might also want to invest in a slotted spoon, some sugar and a box of matches. Take care though, as it's pretty flammable stuff. ;)
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.
