- 20 October 2008 22:027825is there something that you want add to the link jean?
we all heard it on the news. - 20 October 2008 22:097828No, just found it interesting and put the link up in case anyone else had missed it.
- 20 October 2008 22:157829I'm sure there was a sighting of a strange craft in the Western Heights in the late 50s. I'll try and find the reference later. In the meantime, here is a report from 2001. I took it from this link:

"TRIANGULAR UFO HOVERS OVER DOVER CASTLE IN UK
On Thursday, December 20, 2001, at 5 p.m., Kevin Olds of Dover, Kent, UK "was on Albert Road, Dover when he saw three very bright lights in a triangular formation at a height (altitude) of approximately 200 to 300 feet (60 to 90 meters) coming from the direction of Dover's Eastern Docks, heading in a northerly direction."
Olds "first observed it over Dover Castle, a famous landmark, and after a couple of seconds, it banked westward and headed into his direction, getting lower. By this time, he could see a dark triangular shape which the lights were attached to. The object made no sound, and Olds 'felt it was going to crash' when it 'disappeared behind a row of nearby homes and out of view.' The entire incident lasted some 30 seconds." (Many thanks to Chris Rolfe of UFO Monitors-East Kent for this report.)" - 20 October 2008 22:297830can we take it that the 3 bright lights were not from a police car that was pulling up in order to take him "down the nick" in order to give him time to sober up?
- 20 October 2008 22:347831Yep, sounds like headlamps reflecting off low cloud to me. Once in Sholden I saw such an effect over Thanet once with the lights of Dreamland reflecting off low cloud, it did look pretty eerie. Still who knows?
- 20 October 2008 22:377832Just for the record Jeane I hadn't seen or heard that report so thank you for posting it.
See Howard - speak for yourself you naughty boy!!!There's always a little truth behind every "Just kidding", a little emotion behind every "I don't care" and a little pain behind every "I'm ok". - 20 October 2008 22:387833They all think I COME FROM ANOTHER PLANET
- 20 October 2008 22:597837Im sorry but personal experience makes me take these sightings with a pinch of salt.
In a previous life on Salisbury plain not fr from fox covert dz, the entire-of 5 airborne brigade was stood to all night we saw nothing but in the press UFOs were every where, the rum ration that wasn't that good so that when i became s sceptic.beer the food of the gods - 20 October 2008 23:067839Apparently, in the same batch of reports just released, there is a record of a woman turning up during WW2 claiming to have crashed here from a planet of warrior women. Was she Churchills secret weapon?Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.
Richard Armour - 20 October 2008 23:097840that report was proved correct chris.
the warrior woman from another planet eventually became a district councillor for river, on DDC.

Sorry it was me with a very powerful torch on the Heights Been nice knowing you :) - 21 October 2008 01:167843Does anyone else remember this incident? It was early in the morning a couple of years ago, but surely I can't be the only person who photographed it?
- 21 October 2008 07:507845I saw it too Phil and I tried to photograph it, but a strange high pitched electronic sound penetrated my flat and in a desperate need to get my hands over my ears I dropped my trusty camera to the floor. It exploded giblet wise into a million springs, screws and bits of glass...sadly never to function again...stuck forever at 1/60 at f8!
But my eyes still functioned fine and I gazed in awe and wonder at the sight before me. It dithered and hovered over my roof and I swear the driver called out to me...
"Did you see that bloody Alitalia jet..Jeezez that was close!"
With that it flashed away off into the blue and I never saw my friend at the controls again.
