Hi Dee,
By definition, that's a UFO alright.
Maybe one day I'll get a friend of mine to again tell me the details of just one UFO he has seen - right over the city of Coventry. It was airship-shaped, but moved fast in different directions. Typical Spielberg-stuff in appearance, with great detail to be seen, flashing lights, metallic parts, and this was all low, very low over some streets. Then it zoomed off. Like all my pals, they never officially report these things (and I think that's important, as how many go unreported?) because they know it'll do no good, but might just make them a media laughing-stock.
I also lived in Krakow, Poland, once. It's a city in a depression with hills around. I didn't know, but glowing balls of light flew over the city for hours (while I was doing an occult ritual actually! 😮 ). Next day, the local paper had it front-page. People in the hills had watched the lights zoom in and out of Krakow or 'Cracow', and one in our street flew so low between buildings that people fell off their bikes in shock.

Hiya - just wanted to add a quick reply to this on behalf of my OH - some members may have seen my earlier posts on UFOs following the wind turbine incident - mentioning that we seem to be in an area with quite high activity.
Anyway back to this post - 2 weeks ago (11th Aug) he was in town at about 10.55 (not coming out of a pub either!!) and looked up to see first 5 orange lights- they were as bright as street lights and didn't flicker - in a group moving accross the sky and then another 2 which quickly sped up and joined the other 5. They were moving quietly and at a steady speed - and contrary to views on Chinese lanterns - were moving against the wind. He arrived home about 20-25 mins later and we went outside to have a look at the sky and were met with the sound of a military helicopter - which seems to be a regular occurrence following local sightings - and this was followed by a low-level military jet in exactly that area.
We waited before posting to see if there was anything in the local paper - but nothing to add.

cheers venetian...whenever i mention this to people they say, " yeah yeah." But I so know what i saw!
And after much research into the chinese lantern theory to explaning these lights, well I can second Wispy Misty in saying that it was definetly not going with the wind!!!
