Sorry to hear of your loss David, maybe this'll cheer you up:
NEWS JUST IN:
In the early hours of Friday 5th October 2001 an object was recorded on radar at
RAF Watton in Norfolk. It was
heading over the North Sea towards Suffolk. The object disappeared from radar
around Rendlesham Forest which is
situated between RAF Woodbridge and RAF Bentwaters.
At around the same time a security patrol at RAF Woodbridge saw what looked like
something come down in the forest.
They requested permission to go outside the base and investigate. Three
patrolmen were allowed to go outside and
investigate on foot. The patrolmen reported finding a rectangular metallic
object, approximately 0.25 meters wide and 0.5
meters high. It emitted a silvery light which "lit the forest" and had the word
"Hawkwind" on top and a cluster of greenish
lights underneath. The patrolmen were unsure whether the object was hovering or
simply "dancing to the wind" but they did notice a strange antiseptic smell.
The object moved away from the advancing patrolmen and caused animals in a
nearby farm to go into a frenzy. The same object was later seen near the gate
to the base emitting a strange whirring noise.
Upon investigation three impressions were found where the object had been
sighted. They were around 1 1/2
inches deep and 7 inches across, spelling out the words "Doremi" "Faso" and
"Latido".
