Northern Lights

[andygo]

Saw part of that programme with Joanna Lu,ley last night. The Aurora displays look stunning.


Whats the best way to get to see them in real life without spending absolute fortunes?

If you're in luck Northern Scotland.

Only time I have seen them is from my house on the West Coast of Scotland.

They are amazing, very surreal. You wouldn't be spending a fortune to go on a camping holiday to the very North of mainland Scotland at the optimum time of year - whenever that is.

Or there are a few companies who do the plane trips North of Norway, although I don't know how much this is.

Seen them a couple of times in Lapland! Bloody amazing...

Unfortunately, a friend tried to photograph them with a flash camera.... pillock...

The sun is currently in 'doing bugger all' mode - I'd wait five or six years when you might stand a better chance.

They looked stunning last night. Were they 'enhanced' for TV, or is that what they really look like?

I've seen them whilst flying over Canada at night. Absolutely stunning.

Saw the Northern Lights several years ago. Can't say I was that impressed....

Would love to see the real ones, though

Same here. Quite astounding. So much bigger than anything I'd expected and more "experienced" than "seen". We seemed to be inside the aurora rather than looking at it in the distance.

I thought she was going to cum

Looked amazing tho'. the lights that is...

Not Joanna Lumley

I saw them from John O'Groats, not as impressive as on the TV programme but in the distance some flickering shimmering lights to the North.

Someone had jacked it up a little if it was

[Saddle bum]

You can see them from aircraft under certain condtions. The pilot woke the whole 'plane up to tell everyone to look out the window. Impressive.

I couldn't do that. There was no such thing as a 747 when I was 10; I think there might have been a Comet or something like that.

It did look spectacular on TV last night though.

Best wishes all,
Dave.
