Mrs P Cooper, East Harling: "I was travelling home from Diss to East Harling when I saw a light going across the sky from left to right repeatedly. It was kind of spooky. I would really would like to know what this was. Maybe it was only a high power spotlight, although we saw no beam leading to this, so maybe it was a UFO."

Kev, Garboldisham: "There was one light that kept going backwards and forward in the skyline, with the light getting brighter and brighter and then changing to green and red and then disappearing.

"I often see and hear military aircraft and I know exactly what a plane looks like but these were different and silent.

"I am still very convinced, it was some type of UFO."

K Snowdon, Diss: "I am so pleased to see that other people have also witnessed this event. I saw the same light but have no explanation for what I saw. People are saying it was helicopter lights but I can say for sure that it certainly was not that. It is very odd and unexplainable so far."

Annette, East Harling: "My husband and myself, together with our neighbours, watched it for about half an hour.

"The light did not appear to be coming from the ground as there was no beam.

"We did not assume that there was any sinister explanation, only that it might be from the battle area as there was a lot of activity at that time."

Kirsten, Bury St Edmunds: "We were alerted to a yellow/green beam of light in the sky. The beam was semi-circular in shape and moving right to left, high in the sky. We were sure we were watching a UFO. I must admit it was a little unnerving."

Carl, Harleston: "I live in Harleston and the lights were faint but visible in a westerly direction. It seemed like a spotlight rotating in an elliptical orbit. The strange thing about that it spotlight had no beam. It seemed to be emanating from above the cloud"

Graham Musk, Diss: "It was night lightning, caused by static electricity. It is an old phenomenon around here. It is static electricity going from one cloud to another."

Paul and Julie Barker, Morningthorpe – "Our dogs started acting strangely and pacing the kitchen. I went outside to look and saw this phenomenon darting left to right over Long Stratton."

Sarah Cubley, East Harling: "I thought from their appearance they may have been lasers, as they were shaped like two small clouds."

Anne Burton: "We were driving home from Norwich, on the A11, when I saw a large light in the sky, which moved much faster than a plane, almost like it had been fired from a catapult"

Shane Friend: "It was a yellow beam that was flickering up into the sky diagonally. When it got to its highest point, it seemed to fade green then disappear. About 30 seconds later it did the same thing. This happened for around ten to 20 minutes."

Jan Romer: "It was a white beam that went from right to left in a wave effect, then from left to right. Very strange and nothing that we have ever seen before.
