Yes,saw one last year,but not since,though last years successful glow-worm hunters frequently reported seeing them close to water, especially along canal paths and river banks. Other hot spots include; gardens, disused railway embankments (don't go near any active railway lines), meadows, churchyards, woodlands (especially rides and woodland edges) and roadside verges. They are more common in the South,than the North.

Yes, when I lived in Somerset we saw some when walking down a lane one night. Also about 20 years ago.

No I didn't think you got them in the UK, although looking at some of the other answers on here, I was obviously wrong.
