Currently up in Whitby staying near the Abbey. First time seeing it and I'm blown away. Such a fantastic thing to see.

Just seen them here in Reading. And @onlyonebradders has forwarded me these from across town near where our Dad lives.

Incredible. They’re actually visible to the *south* of where I am in Scotland - never seen them that far south before.

Yup visible here in the Aylesbury vale

robgilmo · May 10

Just faint here in Suffolk, might take a drive to a darker spot.

Southern lights more like.

Kebabkid · May 10

Spots from friends and family in London, Norwich, Clacton and here in Surrey.
Impressive and whilst not as vibrant and clear as we've seen on film and pics, I'll take it as Bucket List tick

Wow, that's crazy. Here I was thinking all us Wildlings where the only ones potentially able to see it. The fact that it can be seen way down there too is totally mad. Just sent my Sister in Law some photos as she went all the way to Iceland to see them and didn't catch a glimpse. She's not happy

I'm seeing them in Cambridgeshire. Woke the wife and kids so they could see them too. Once in a lifetime event for us.. and this is only the first wave.. Amazing peach and light blues

Just been out for an insomnia walk and spotted them. I didn’t know there was a thing but knew straight away what it was. Definitely exaggerated by the phone camera but still definitely visible without and I’m in a built up part of Sheffield

not here

robgilmo · May 10

Sat here in a field outside the village, got a few shots but nothing spectacular, very misty and now a fog has rolled in, managed to see the sky turn red though.

fastonebaz · May 10

No.

We're staying in the centre of Glasgow tonight and can't see it from the Premier Inn, but here are some friends' photos from back home in Elgin.

The last one is the street behind ours.
Of all the nights to be away...

My son saw it in Edinburgh

marxski · May 11

I’ve seen some stunning photos taken about half a mile away in South Gloucestershire. I’m a bit miffed I missed it.

Kebabkid · May 11

We might get a second chance tonight

This was Northamptonshire, surreal having a bucket list moment in your back garden.

Same here. I paid good money to go to the top of Norway back in December to see the lights. Had one glimpse on day one, then cloud cover for the rest of the trip! Better displays last night here in rural Wiltshire.

Apparently it was really good here in Kent. Naturally, I missed it. Bugger.

Howdy, Stranger!
