UFO!

I don’t, personally, know what to think about aliens visiting our planet but there are many people who are convinced of their presence and who claim to have seen or even been abducted by extraterrestrial life forms. The British Government, under the Act of Freedom of Information, has published lists of apparent sightings year by year. I downloaded two reports, from 2008 and 1997. I found some of the descriptions rather funny:

 

Area	Brief Description of sighting
Derbyshire	Something ‘very strange’.
Gloucestershire	A UFO. (Of course, what else could it be?)
West Midlands	The witness saw a fast moving green object, whilst driving on the M6 Motorway. (A green Porche?)
Gloucestershire	A sighting of something. (Next time I see ‘something’, should I report it to the Police?)
Shropshire	A UFO was seen.
West Yorkshire	There were five orange objects and then one orange ‘blob’ came into view.
Hampshire	A UFO.
Vale of Glamorgan	Eleven objects in the sky. (Birds maybe?)
Kent	A UFO .
Surrey	Something interesting. (No one doubts it :)
Devon	UFO activity. (If you say so.)
North Yorkshire	A cork shaped object that glowed like an angel (what?!), flew up and over some trees.
Gloucestershire	A UFO. It was moving to the west.
Cornwall	A mysterious sight in the night sky.
London	Lights in the sky. (Yes, they are called stars, though difficult to spot in big cities.)
Somerset	A strange sighting.
Glamorgan	Three UFOs or something.
West Yorkshire	There was a sighting of lights in the sky. (My god, how unusual.)
Lancashire	An object, the shape of a chewing gum pack, black in colour and had three circles of lights underneath it, emitting a dull orange light.
Buckinghamshire	Something definitely odd. (We believe you.)
Clwyd	An unusual sighting.
West Yorkshire	Two objects.
Staffordshire	A UFO was flying through the sky.
Somerset	An object moving across the sky. (Now, that’s something unheard of.)
Cheshire	It was an unusual sighting of an object.
Avon and Somerset	A big alien craft landed on top of the witness’s house. The craft then flew off over Bristol.
Cumbria	A UFO was seen and there was an alien in the witness’s house.
Bedfordshire	A UFO was observed for 57 minutes. It seemed to be monitoring Luton Airport air traffic.
Gwent	A single object.
West Yorkshire	Lights were seen. (Nie mogę :D )
Staffordshire	Something strange in the sky.
Country Antrim	The ships/UFOs were over the witness’s house, various times this year. He also saw the grays. (What about seeing his psychiatrist?)
Dorset	One hundred possible UFOs in the sky. (Now, that’s something)
Dorset	A pretty unusual sighting
Cornwall	An object was seen. The witness said the object was seen over Christmas.
West Yorkshire	One object. Got larger as it came close. (Isn’t this what usually happens when things move closer?)
West Midlands	Saucer shaped object, like a dull grey cloud. It was moving slowly, but faster than a cloud.
Essex	A solid white line.
	A man/alien walked in and laid on the witnesses quilt, then whooshed through the window.
Hampshire	Lights were seen over the Isle of Wight. (Did they not have electricity before?)
Lincolnshire	A bright light. It wasn't moving.
Worcestershire	A UFO. Similar to a conventional aircraft. Travelling Northwards at huge speed. (So it definitely wasn’t a fast plane?)
Greater Manchester	A very bright star. The star came towards the witness, lit up the whole area and then went back in the direction it had come from.
Monmouthshire	One object, that was bigger than a car. It was white and very bright. It came down the road. (Not a lorry?)
Kent	An object, much bigger than a star. Looked like a large apple. It exploded and sparkled like a firework and then fizzled out. (Geez, an apple bigger than a star?!)
Devon	A star shaped object. It was very high. It moved in an 'inhuman way' on a curved path. Slowed down and then disappeared into outer space.
North Yorkshire	Six objects that looked like 'Fancy rats'. Were green and white in colour. They made circular patterns in the sky.
