Looking out to sea at the end of the pier. 2 children with me who loved Care bears. A pink light appeared and slowly faded away. Wishing 🌟 children shouted

Aww, care bears, I remember them well, both the films and cartoons the fluffy bears and the little rubber or plastic ones.
Bet the kids went home happy after seeing that😃

When and where exactly did you see the pink light?
On May 10/11 over the Eastbourne coastline there were UFOs seen by hundreds of people.

😂😂😂

Of course!!

This prediction came from Galactic Informers Spiritual Connection (GSIC), a global organisation created to ‘prove the existence of our off-world ET brothers and sisters’, according to its website.

Vintage Care Bear residing in our toy box was most put out because I wouldn't take him to meet his alien cousins.

Which Care Bear is it Allira? My twins have one each, a fluffy green one Good Luck Bear and I think a pink one with a rainbow.They’ll end up on ebay at some point I bet.

Yes I have twice! Totally inexplicable..even phoned airport 'nothing was flying'. Other was well documented as it was tracked by others right across central Scotland. Another I didn't see but was there and now live there. Check it out Dechmont Law UFO. Knew the ranger very sane down to earth mam

The truth is out there!

One of my closest girlfriends who I have known for over 45 years is convinced she saw a UFO when she was driving down a country road 30 years ago (District Nurse) no houses or street lights.

She is intelligent, and now a senior nurse, nothing will convince her it wasn’t visitors from outer space.

A retired superintendent of police told me that his squad had had to investigate an alleged UFO landing and certainly found very convincing evidence. It was all hushed up which really annoyed him.

Pretty sure I saw one over Leeds some years ago. Working late in a Tower Block office in the city. I was preparing to leave, looked out of the window and saw a cylindrical object in the sky that appeared to be hovering over a building in the south of the city. There were no windows or other details on the object, which was a silvery colour.
The strangest part about it was the way it changed position. I didn’t see it travel at all, despite looking intently at it all the time. It simply disappeared from the area and re-appeared in a different location. It did this several times. I called colleagues to the window to witness this. The object gradually moved further and further away. Each person agreed that they did not see it actually travel each time it moved. We watched for a total of 20 minutes.

Saw it in Walton on the Maze in the 90s

Naze not maze. Sodding auto-correct

Pilots say they see all sorts of strange things, so I wouldn’t be surprised.

I spent many hours on hills in Warminster with a group I belonged to back in the 70’s looking for them. It was with a group called the Wessex Association for The Study of Unexplained Phenomena, WATSUP 🙂. We did see lots of odd things there and had many interesting talks on other occasions, but I don’t recall a definitive moment of sighting, I think collective hysteria played its part!

A blue one so he's an Earthling.

I saw one when I was a teenager (65 this year) whilst walking near my home one night.
Very strange as we lived near Heathrow Airport, but it wasn’t a plane as used to seeing them day in day out - it came down really low, then disappeared.
It was not plane shaped it was circular.
I am still the laughing stock of my family as no one believed me, still don’t!

Seen shooting stars and meteorite showers but nothing unexplained. The night sky in some of the desert areas is phenomenal, a sight to see.

Back in the late 70s my then boyfriend and I were out for a drive near what was then Enfield, Middlesex (now classified as north London). We were heading back from Waltham Cross, driving down a windy, hilly road, alone on the road, when half of a very large, round craft appeared above us (the other half was obscured by the hill), hovered for a few seconds, then simply disappeared. We both looked at it, then each other and simultaneously said, 'Did you see that?'
No idea to this day what it was but we both believe we saw a UFO.

We forget how magical it is here in the UK, although we do have Dark Skies areas.
Years ago we went to an observatory somewhere in the Outback which had an astronomical telescope. It was a truly amazing experience.

Yes, Central Scotland mid 90's while feeding my horses.

Yogitrees not in the Bonnybridge triangle? It was infamous in the 80s and 90s for UFO sightings
