“What on earth is that?” He slowed to a halt and peered up through the windscreen. Then we got out of the car, stood and gawped as three red objects
moved across the sky. They were making no noise. There were no familiar aeroplane-style flashing lights, just a dull red light. They were aeroplane shaped but
no wings were visible. As we stood and watched them, a fourth one appeared. They were all
moving in the same direction from North to South high above our heads. They were not bobbing like a Chinese lantern
might have done and at no time did we hear any engine sounds.
I have to admit that it seriously scared me. I have
nightmares about drones zooming in to attack me and I spent a good part of the
night with the light on. I rang my friends the next morning to see what they
thought about it in the cold light of day.
“Chinese lanterns,” they said. “It
had to be Chinese lanterns.”
Sorry to disagree but these were definitely not little paper lanterns with a candle burning inside. Neither, I suspect, were they alien invaders. Both Mr A and myself think that they have something to do with the
military, some kind of testing, a new kind of drone flying with engines down
and no flashing lights. Whatever they are, I can’t get them out of my mind.
Have you ever seen anything that has no logical explanation?
