   A UFO resembling a Zeppelin has been spotted over the Westcountry.   
   The phenomenon was seen by a barbecue party in North Devon.   
       
   Mr. John Garnsey, a local magistrate, said: "It was most weird.  I   
   thought it might be a plane, but it made no noise. We watched it for   
   over 10 minutes drifting across the sky.   
       
   "It seemed to discharge a rocket from it then disappeared across the   
   horizon."    
       
   Seventeen witnesses at the party watched the UFO - and Mr. Garnsey insisted:   
   "We hadn't been drinking!"    
       
   His wife Jennifer said: "It was traveling slowly across the sky.  All   
   of a sudden another bright light like a rocket flashed from it.   
       
   "It was completely silent.  We thought it might be an aircraft or   
   a helicopter, but we couldn't hear an engine."

    Report #: 12

   Date Sent: 12-10-1986   
    Location: SCUNTHORPE, ENGLAND         
      
   CASE TYPE:  LRS   
        DATE:  2 SEPTEMBER 1986     
        TIME:  JUST AFTER MIDNIGHT       
        CFN#:  12    
    DURATION:  10: MINUTES     
   WITNESSES:  MANY

   --------------------------------------------------   
       
   The British UFO Research Association is to investigate the sighting   
   last night of a motionless flashing object in Scunthorpe's northern   
   skies.  It was spotted just after midnight at about 15 degrees above   
   the horizon. Observers in Messingham said it was flashing approximately   
   once every second and remained in the same place for around 10 minutes   
   before slowly moving off to the east.   
      
   Today, the national secretary of BUFORA, Mr. Les Sallis, based in   
   Hull, said he would investigate the sighting. Checks with other   
   organizations, such as the RAF, might reveal the cause of the flashing   
   light, but it was too early to say. A sighting over Winterton two   
   months ago turned out to be a weather balloon.   
      
   Anyone in the area who spotted the mysterious flashing light should   
   contact the Scunthorpe Evening Telegraph on 843421.

   Sightings of a mysterious glowing object has left people in Rhyl wondering   
   if they have seen a UFO.   
      
   Mr. James Perry, of 32 Princes Road, Rhyl, saw a large rectangular   
   object, with flashing lights, which moved slowly across the sky on   
   Thursday evening and other people in the area have reported similar   
   sightings.   
      
   "It was traveling very slowly in a straight line," he said.  "There   
   were lights that looked like windows, but it wasn't like a plane.   
   There was no sound or hazard lights like you would see on a plane."   
      
   Mr. Perry watched the plane from another window and the lights change   
   and started flashing.  "They looked like disco lights," he added.   
      
   "I have always been rather sceptical about UFO's, but I have no idea   
   what this could be," he said.

   Fourteen-year-old Kingsley Wiggin claims to have sighted an unidentified   
   flying object hovering over Skipton's Rockwood estate earlier this   
   month.   
      
   Kingsley, who lives in the town's West Bank Road, says he was on his   
   morning newspaper round, when he saw an object which glowed very brightly:   
   "about two seconds rather like a very bright star."   
      
   He says the shape of the object was unclear, but he is sure that it   
   was not an aeroplane: "or anything else I could think of."   
      
   Kingsley saw the object at about 7:35 a.m. on September 4, but when   
   he later returned with his father, the object had disappeared.
