I want to drive up and see them for myself George. Reason I mentioned Norway last week! : )

Did you see any in England? I doubt I would see any, I'm inside the M25 and south of London. All I see when I look up is orange.

its been too cloudy to see owt

Can't your magnet do anything about that?

Saw then in Kiruna, although it was snowing most of the time so not as dramatic as some places.

Mate was in Canada, drinking up in some cabin, went outside to make a snow-angel (as you do when it's brass monkeys and you are drunk) and said the lights were so mental that he thought someone had put LSD (no, not a diff) in his drink.

His mates dragged him back inside telling him he was >this far< away from being bear food. Sobered him up a bit

Was crystal clear here last night and saw little bits for a whiley - would have been better further North. Been in northern Norway couple of times and once coming home on an overnight from Canada and seen them - it really is an amazing sight.

A good mate of mine was just telling me a few days ago about a couple he knows who paid 8 grand to go up to Norway for 4 days to catch the lights. They didn't see them apparently because of the weather conditions lol.

Might be a bit late that news was from aug 2010.

You'll not see them down there anyway?
