Hi all!
This is a story from the North East of England. Please note: If you live in America, and have an overly developed ego and/or sense of patriotism, I am
NOT, repeat NOT, going to rename the title of the thread... If you cannot get over the fact that there is more than one North East on this planet,
then you should learn to grow up!
On to the information:
About ten minutes ago, my younger brother (who is in his mid/late twenties) came running into my house and asked me to "Come and look at this. I want
to know what you think"
I immediately got up and followed him outside, as he seemed rather flustered and anxious about something. He is not normally the sort to become easliy
excited (not about this sort of thing at least).
As we got outside he pointed to something in the sky.
It is overcast currently and going dark, rather quickly.
I couldn't see anything, having come from a bright room into the gloom outside, as my eyes were adjusting.
He was pointing to the object in the sky, and telling me that as he walked over it was a round light, about the size of a ten pence piece (or a
quarter, for the Americans here) held at arms length.
He stated that the light was static for a while, then it blinked, but did not move in the sky.
As he had come into the house, and we both went outside it obviously diminished in size and brightness, to the point where it could not be seen any
more.
This is all of the information I can give. The irritating thing was that I immediately ran outside with my camera, in the hopes of taking an image of
something grandiose, only to be thwarted by time... As such what you read here is all the information available.
So, does anyone live in the North East of England that might have seen this?
Is there anyone out there that might shed some information on this phenomenon?
Thanks for reading!
