Well..... I'm in the UK next week- and was hoping to call in at a shop /chemist/health food/farm supplies shop.
Anyone any ideas before I go back to Plan B ( internet shopping)?"Nicos, Queen of Gooooogle" and... GYO's own Miss Marple

never heard of the stuff but found this on google What is alum? . Also found this on wikianswers "Alum can be found at a grocery store in the spice selection and where all the powder things are because its mostly sold in powder form
Note: There are comments associated with this question. See the discussion page to add to the conversation."

and on yahoo answers "The spice section of your local grocer.
Alum powder, found amongst spices at most grocery stores, is used in pickling recipes as a preservative, to maintain crispness, and as an ingredient in some play dough recipes. It is also commonly cited as a home remedy or pain relief for canker sores among other uses."
Hope that helps missus

Thanks AP - I had seen that- but unfortunately it's an American site.
I've had a good look round most of the main UK supermarket spice sections in the past ( looking for unusual products) and never come across it."Nicos, Queen of Gooooogle" and... GYO's own Miss Marple
