Where & When is the best time/place to have a chance of seeing the Aurora Borealis (Northern lights) if I want to travel from the UK to northern Europe ? Thanks

Finnish Lapland sounds like a good bet. If you click here, that will link you to a web-page which has a lot more to say on the topic.

Tromso in northern Norway is another possibility: http://www.saturn.org.uk/Tromso/Aurora/aurora.htm Tromso info here: http://www.alltravelnorway.com/Norway/Destination_Guides/Cit ies/Tromso.htm
