Off to Lapland first thing in the morning, don't suppose I'll get the chance to come on again until we get back on Sunday evening.
Hope you all get a game in over the next few days, if I manage to get any pics of the Northern Lights, I'll post 'em up when we get back.
Two hip flasks loaded with Glayva and a new pouch of baccy packed.
Cushty!

So just as the snow goes you go looking for more :)

Have a great time and hope you see the lights. We went to Iceland a few years back but nothing doing!

Thanks for the good wishes folks. Up nice and early as have to be at Gatwick by 7.00am and I cocked up the alarm clock! At least it means I might get a kip on the 'plane. Loads and loads of thermal gear packed, hand warmers, bottle of "Gentleman Jack" to keep me warm between expeditions. Got a husky sled ride lined up, along with a 2 hour trip out on ski-doo's across a frozen lake and up into a secluded part of the forest to get away from any light pollution so that we can see the stars (and hopefully the Northern Lights) properly.
Also a trip to a reindeer farm and a couple of other things as well. Certainly going to be an action packed 3 days, just hope I can stay awake!
This is where we are heading for.....

And the weather at the moment is looking something like -11 at nights, with -1 during the day, so not as bad as we anticipated. The local forecast for the next 3 days is "cloudy with some clear spells". Hopefully the clear spells will come at night, because if it's cloudy, we're buggered.....:(
