I have always wanted to see the northern lights!
I never have.
Perhaps one day I'll get it together to go north!
I am not trying to go off-topic, merely offer some hope. . .
I live in Bristol and I notice you live in Wales (so maybe even further north than me). In 2001 we saw the aurora from our back garden. It filled nearly 1/3 of the sky. Despite being a keen amateur astronomer I wouldn't have been looking that night had not another astonomer friend over in Aylesbury (same latitude) phoned to tell me!
Like many other times in your life, keep your eye on the heavens, but watch where you are walking
