We've had far fewer this year though.
Yes indeed. As a randonneur, I'm often out at night in the summer, and it's a highlight of the summer. I've not seen any displays this year
. I remember watching a fantastic display right across the northern sky, on the way back to Seething last year, 350km into the Seething 600. Sadly this year, there was a cold NE wind off the North Sea, and a low misty Haar.
