that's what it mostly looks like, except the 'giraffe' q. makes me think of those strange sexy animal orangina adverts that you see in france....

I choose to believe, in spite of all evidence, that viii refers to the waxed-paper milkshake cups (http://data2.whicdn.com/images/10758219/5453282042_0d0998805c_z_large.jpg) that are favoured by New Zilind fish and chip shops.

A scramble on Wikipedia looking for the answer to ii instead revealed that the answer to ix is Gerolsteiner - which has a distinctive logo of a lion inside a red star. (The Eifel is an upland region in southwest Germany.)

Googling for vii reveals that Mikael and Figuerola are characters WHO SHAG in book 3 of the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo series (Kicking Hornets Is A Bad Idea). No clue as to what Mikael's beverage of choice is...

iv. Salus is yr Roman goddess of SOCIALISM viz the welfare state, security etc.

According to the (1825 published) Encyclopædia of Antiquities: And Elements of Archaeology, Classical and Medieval by Thomas Dudley Fosbrok: "There occurs for a reverse upon a coin of Trajan, struck at Tiberius in Palestine, a town noted for its warm baths, the goddess Salus seated upon a hill, at the foot of which issued a copius spring."

Or it could be these dudes in Uruguay?
