REPORT Finally. A clear day. Walking down the street (actually more like a Leeds street - hilly) What at first seemed to be a rainbow in the air turns out to be trails from some aircraft. The trails slowly twine around one another arching into the sky slowly due to the distance from the observer rather than low velocity, like watching the mushroom cloud from a nuclear explosion slowly unfurl grandly in the sky. The coloured trails whoosh closer and I see that the aircraft are classical silver disc UFOs. There are a few other people around on this street (a housing estate) and they are all looking up in amazement. We are all thinking the same thing. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF WE ARE IN DANGER OR NOT SOMETHING AMAZING IS HAPPENING HERE. I run to Janine's house, call her out, and we walk down the road watching the visitors making rainbows in the air, feeling content. Werever they are hostile or friendly is irrelevent.
The sun is white, frosted and misty. There isn't a cloud in the sky.
