After seeing local photos online last night showing the Aurora I went to Port Carlisle to see them.  It was well worth going as the red was actually quite visible to the naked eye.  Misty's collie friends were also around having a little walk but their owner had no idea about the aurora until I told him.  So we had a chat and watched it for quite a long time.  The aurora was still visible after midnight when I went to bed.  A few more in extras.
