Reports of strange lights in the skies over Wisbech have sparked interest from across Fenland and even further afield.

In fact one woman from Barnstaple, North Devon, contacted the Citizen after spotting the stories of the 'UFO' sightings on our website: www.fenlandcitizen.co.uk

She was interested in the story where Alison Hunt, of Cherry Road, Wisbech, reported seeing a very bright glowing orange light the size of a 'full moon' over her garden on January 30.

The woman, who didn't want to be named, said her daughter and her husband actually saw two of these objects, which she described as "huge, massive, orange orbs very bright. Both were the size of a full moon."

She had spotted them as she was driving her car in Barnstaple with her husband in the passenger seat. It was between 5pm and 6pm on a clear evening.

"My daughter told me that it absolutely frightened her, she said. "They looked as though they had just appeared out of the atmosphere and just hovered there silently.

"They then disappeared into a dot," wrote the woman, who has contacted Brian Vike, who runs a UFO research website based in Canada. His website is: www.HBCCUFO.org

Brian has hundreds of reports on his website. The orange orbs have been sighted by many people in the USA.

The woman herself claims to have had a sighting of two blue/silver orbs back in early August 2007 just above her Barnstaple home and she managed to photograph one of them.

She also claims they have been experiencing electrical disturbances here a few times recently, where the lights flicker.

And she claims to have actually seen an object over her home after the lights in the house started flickering and her computer turned off.

"I felt rather spooked by the experience to tell you the truth," she wrote.
