There was a UFO buzz over Edinburgh on Saturday. Classic sighting stuff (two bright yellow orbs.)

Folk doing the usual cliche stuff too. (Phoning Edinburgh airport, calling the police, radio stations and getting scared witless.) *Sighs*

My sister called me to talk about it too.

I kinda follow ufology a bit. .. Um.. A lot. Seriously though, it would do my head in if I believed everything though. I take a factual approach to it.

(There's a number of respected U.K researchers out there that write some interesting, methodical, no nonsense stuff. I make up my own mind about what I read though.)

When she called, I was blase. It was nothing new. There's tonnes of sighting like that in the U.K. It could have been ball lightning or anything else too. I even asked her if it was near any powers stations, but it wasn't.

The official word was that it was Venus, which made me laugh.

It was crazy on Saturday night.

...Um.....



I got carried away there. End of rant.

Talking about aliens, anyone catch that new show 'Invasion' last night on Channel 4? Maybe both sightings were a publicity stunt to generate lots of viewers? You never know! (Tongue in cheek)

I watched Invasion. It'll be interesting to see where they take it and how they get there.



Just got my S3 ticket. I tried about five or six times between 10am and 11am, and started again at 2pm when I got back home. Got through to the man himself on the, oh, sixth attempt I guess.

Oh, and WOO!

Yes, and I enjoyed it very much!

For those who went to the previous two, they are on sale from today.

Not that Mr H seemed to have checked that with me...

Not unless he was reeeaally quick at it, which he probably is by now. I mean, there was no long pause to look up my name or anything.

Well, the papers are signed which put me & my wife in debt for the purchase price of a 2005 Prius. We pick up the check (checque for you Britlanders) this afternoon and then pick up the new car. It's kind of exciting, the last time I bought a new car was in 1989, but it's also a bit creepifyin' to owe that much money.

Sure going to be nice around the gas pump, though.
