Thanks all for your kind comments.
We were in Tromso too Peter on three separate occasions for a total of five nights, and although there were some breaks in the clouds, it was not ideal. The eclipse chasers seem to head along way inland (even as far as Finland and back on the one night) or sometimes go to some of the adjoining islands.
My research showed that the inland fjords (ie. further away from the gulf stream effect on the western coast) would be better, as would the Abisko NP region in Sweden. Whilst both of these suggestions provided results for us, there is quite a degree of luck if accommodation is pre-booked, not to mention sun activity and duty cycle of the aurora sentry! (my wife and I took turns...)
Cheers, Chris
