Time: 21.30

Witness Statement: I popped outside tonight,Sat 8th May 2010. Looking East in the sky I noticed a bright orange ball type light moving quite fast towards west direction. There was no sound, strobes or anything that identifies it as a plane or helicopter. It made various sudden movements in the sky doing sharp turns. I'm ex Raf and have seen many aircraft in the night sky (having served with Tornados) and there is no way this was a plane. It went over the house,fading as it went over and as I ran through the house to the back it disappeared.

The sky was clear with the odd light cloud. It goose pimpled me and I'm at ends to explain what it was. Lets hope somebody else saw this.
