Just flash any ics rom in odin
I advise 4.0.3 LPG. Current 4.0.4 ROMs are still immature and new releases for wide Europe will come soon

Either root your device with CF root and flash custom roms, or go to www.sammobile.com and download a stock firmware and flash through odin if you want stock ICS

ICS is great imo, Just root your phone and then follow the instructions on the rom's thread.
