Those spooky unidentified flying objects are at it again - this time in Barrhead!
The Paisley Daily Express has already revealed how eagle-eyed believers have reported two separate UFO sightings - one in Elderslie and another in Renfrew.
Now every Buddie's favourite newspaper can reveal that a report has been posted on a top UFO-spotting website detailing a sighting in Barrhead.
The shocked eyewitness told the UK UFO website: "When I was out in the garden, I could see two luminous blue objects from a distance. They flew overhead silently and at speed.
High Strangeness
A Territory woman says strange lights spotted flying over Borroloola late last year had also been seen in the area 20 years ago.
Robyn Doddrell, 55, who now lives in Humpty Doo, was living and working in Borroloola in February 1989 when she said the bright orange lights descended on the town.
Last week the Northern Territory News revealed that Borroloola woman Cheryl Keighran had been followed for about 25km by a bright light in the sky that appeared to turn into an orange ball. Now Ms Doddrell has revealed a similar occurrence two decades earlier.

A database set up to record UFO sightings by police officers has recorded 310 incidents in the past six years.
Gary Heseltine, a British Transport Police officer, has produced an annual report detailing UFO sightings by officers across the country since 2003. His latest report, published on his PRUFOS (Police Reporting UFO Sightings ) database this week, highlights 50 new cases involving 106 officers - taking the total of individual sightings recorded to 310.
The 48-year-old said: "Police officers are trained to give dispassionate, detailed descriptions of things they see and are highly credible witnesses as a result."
Mr Heseltine said he set-up the database in the mid-Nineties after he found a UFO magazine full of highly credible accounts of sightings by military pilots backed up by radar evidence.

There was another sighting of the strange lights in the night's sky above Worcestershire at the weekend.
James Dunlop, of Eckington, near Pershore, said he saw a large red light in the shape of a boomerang or upside down letter V moving slowly across the sky as he drove towards Bewdley. Mr Dunlop, who works at the Worcestershire Hub, said he noticed the light at exactly 8pm on Sunday.
"I only had sight of it for about two to three minutes but I was very surprised," he said. "Having family who were in the RAF and interested in planes I knew that there is nothing that resembles what I saw in our air force."

Time: Approx: 7:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: about 45 miles North of Owyhee, Nevada in Idaho.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: ?
Shape of objects: Behind a cloud.
Full Description of event/sighting: My Husband was driving our truck pulling our travel trailer and I was following driving our car. We were headed South on Idaho Highway 51 which becomes Nevada Highway 225 at the state border. We were about 45 miles North of Owyhee, Nevada. It was February 21, 2008, approximately 7:00 PM. We had passed the junction towards Mountain Home Airforce Base, Idaho about 40 miles back. Suddenly up and to my left were two bright glowing lights (flares I believe) drifting my direction. At first before I had time to reason out that they were only flares, I got scared. I hate to drive anyway and especially at night, so I began to flash my lights repeatedly at my Husband to get him to pull over. He did pull off on the first side road that we came to (on the left, East-side of the highway).

Dear Mr. Vike,
It is difficult to decide where to begin this story, as I am not sure exactly where the beginning is. Because of this, I will simply share the totality of my knowledge and experience in an anecdotal way.
My mother's side of my family seems to be a beacon for weird things, and UFO/extraterrestrial phenomena fits squarely into that category. As far as I know, the story really begins with my uncle, who was known for something rather odd as a child. He would often disappear from the home in the middle of the night and a member of the family would find him missing, and they would go looking for him. Often, he would be found on the other side of town, wandering in a dazed/confused state. When he was asked about it, he would reply that he just went for a walk. He was not sleepwalking, per se, but would often be found wearing his bedclothes, and sometimes without shoes.
