Monsta® Posted October 19, 2009 Report Posted October 19, 2009 No one else see that red UFO floating over Bedders last night? were you not on drugs? or had on to many alcipops! got any pics?
Malcolm Robinson Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Posted October 19, 2009 About 8.00pm last night a red light with an intermittent white light below passed over Bedders. It came over the Hartlands and crossed over the Top End then went towards the Station and off. I looked at the wind direction and that was in the same direction and seeing there was no sound associated I presume it must have been some sort of 'balloon', but the lights............? I wonder is someone phoned the cops to say their son was trapped inside! As for a camera sadly no, by the time I got the tripod out and loaded the flash pan..........

As for a camera sadly no, by the time I got the tripod out and loaded the flash pan..........Both myself and my daughter spotted it there was no noise as you so rightly said and your description is as we both saw it you forgot to mention how fast it was going and the only thing I can think of is it was a metorite burning up in the atmosphere it was a very strange site I must add.
Malcolm Robinson Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Posted October 19, 2009 I'm not that senile yet Cym! The 'body' was a red colour with an intermittent white light underneath. It wasn't the copper chopper, the noise would have been deafening. I would guess it was about 150-200m up and looked to be drifting in the wind. Someone must have set it up..............no takers?
Malcolm Robinson Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Posted October 19, 2009 At last, thanks sizsells!!!!!!!!!
Guest mrsvic Posted October 19, 2009 Report Posted October 19, 2009 Well Mrsvic said they'd be back.Sure it wasn't one of those paper lanterns? We saw one over ASDA a few weeks back and originally thought it was a UFO. Good thing we came to our senses as I was about to start following it... it was going in the direction of Blyth!Saw some fireworks last night too mind. And Jupiter.

Symptoms Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 Well, that promise made a few years back must have eventually reached that galaxy far, far away. They came at night but found the barber's shop closed.
Malcolm Robinson Posted October 22, 2009 Author Report Posted October 22, 2009 That's a blast from the past Sym.......still no landing charges though!
