    Hey James, it pretty much happen every night, HOWEVER, not every night is the same, occasions like we having lately are few and when it happen you will see people going "nuts"...
    To be able to see it well with naked eye you must be in a great darkness or star lights and in your case "easy"... follow
    This link and every time you see numbers above 4 and better 5+ you may see it with naked eye, of course late night is better...

    I hope it helps and gravel_ben may be able to give you more advise.

    Mac sums it up pretty well, its not easy to predict in advance (predictions can show a better/worse chance of it but no guarantee) and you have to be somewhere dark with clear skies south to see it.

    I'm part of a couple of aurora groups on facebook so I generally see a bunch of activity there to let me know when a good one is happening.

    There are a few phone apps you can get which give you notifications when it reaches a certain level too.

    By law, you are required to turn on your headlights if it's raining in Sweden.

    How the hell am I supposed to know if it's raining in Sweden?

    One of my 6-year-olds skippering her Grandad's 2m inflatable with an 8hp. She seems quite capable.
