Radiospares too http://www.rsonline.se

If it were me I think I'd get

16F877A part# 4671690 DIP40 56,45kr for 1
18F452 part# 4672126 DIP40 68,70kr for 1

Unfortunately RS are a little behind the times, understandably,
so they don't have more recent devices

Considering the complexity of those two, you could spent
the rest of year playing with them, and still not be done, which
isn't bad value for money if you look at it that way

Then maybe you could look at someone like Arrow

for a tube or, as Peter said, Microchip (buy / sample), especially
if you want anything in the nanoWatt range

There are at least a couple of PIClisters in Sweden, maybe
they can help
