Planning to cook thai food

I went to the more up-market supermarket today to buy the ingredients for tok ka gai, and unfortunately managed to stump them.
In spite of the fact that their fact sheets on herbs and spices etc. list galangal, extol its virtues, and describe its flavours and its uses, the produce manager tells me that they have never stocked it.  And they no longer stock lemon grass.

Yours, remembering the downside of living in the boonies,
