    I can confirm that the object that you saw was definitely a UFO! 😉

    While we are on the subject of UFOs.

    A few weeks ago I saw a single orange light moving quickly across the sky in straight line (my brother also saw it). I thought it was an RAF Fighter Jet’s Exhaust but there were no other lights (Nav lights, Strobe lights etc) and, above all, there was complete silence. It was a cold night and their was no cloud (or very little of it).

    I saw the same thing a few days later going in a different direction but it was definately a jet – it had sound, nav lights etc and that same orange light but it flew much slower, yet at a high speed for a jet, than the unexplained light had done.

    I teach aircraft recognition in the Air Training Corps so I usually know an aircraft when I see it but this certainly didn’t seem quite right. Also, the orange light was just as strong when it was approaching my location as it was after it had passed me. Would I be right in thinking that a jet aircraft coming towards you would expose less of its exhaust than when it was flying away from you.

    I also see a large number of shooting stars in my area (I last counted 12 in half an hour) but this was not one of them….they are barely visible long enough for you to see them never mind for the 30 seconds or so that this light was visible for.

    Does anyone else think that this is slightly dodgy 😀 😀 😀 LOL 😀 Or am I barking up the wrong tree again 😀 😀 😀

    The Blue Max

    I purchased The Blue Max on DVD the other day – a story of a WW1 German Fighter Pilot and his efforts to gain 20 confirmed kills to get the Blue Max medal (Germany’s version of the Victoria Cross).

    It’s amazing how, when viewed from a German perspective, you actually end up wanting him to survive and even cheering when he shoots down a British Aircraft!!!

    It also highlighted a ‘infamous’ mass slaughter that, in my opinion, was completely un-necessary. If anything screams “Anti-War” for me, it has to be this one.

    If every program that contained a possibly offensive joke or piece of humour we wouldn’t really have anything to watch.

    Dad’s Army would be banned because the Home Guard could actually march in step – in fact they were well trained.

    Jim Davidson would have been put up against a wall and shot 😀 😀 😀 LMAO 😀 Probably along with most other stand up comics.

    The words humour and joke would have been removed from the Dictionary because they were obsolete 😀 😀 😀

    Etc Etc Etc…The list is almost endless 😀 😀 😀

    Is it really that those found it offensive or do they just want to be mentioned on TV etc 😀 😀 😀 LOL 😀
