I avoided giving the time of the sightings and a full
description of what had been seen.
These reports were published on Friday 2April 1993 and by mi~
afternoon on that day my phone was ringing continuously. Ny
callers were mainly from the Taunton, Minehead area and
interestingly gave me a good picture of the objects journey
over Somerset and onto the Dorset border. Again most of the
reports were of two very bright white lights, flying parallel
to each other and at a constant speed. The rear light source
was again mentioned in all the reports and as bafore the
callers had difficultly in describing this. The length of the
trailing light varied from caller to caller and was anything
from 100 1
to 100yds depending on the callers angle of sighting.
Most of these sightings were timed between 1.10am and 1.17am,
which indicated a 1.10am to 1.1Sam sighting, some five minutes
later than the Welsh, Cornwall sightings.
In addition to the 1.10am - 1.1Sam ·sightings, I also received
two re~orts concerning a large object carrying two very bright
outward light sources. This object was seen at 2am over the
River Parrot, Nr Bridgewater, flying very low, about 800', by
some local fishermen known as 'Elvers'. Elvers being young
eels. Both reports concerned a number of fishermen, but were
initially made by two of them, Hr and of
Bridgewater, Somerset. One of the sightecs,
described the object as looking like a very large 'Catamaran'.
It had two long ski like sections underneath which appeared to
be joined by a centre structure about 400' to 500' apart! From
the rear they described a long beam like light source,
something like a cars headlights dimmed.
