    Probably Chinese Lanterns.
    Be careful-they might land on your decking.

    whats with the recent overdose of chinese lanterns everywhere?

    I'm sick of all these people jumping to conclusions when they see all these UFO's at night. 'It's a comet', 'It's a Chinese lantern' etc.


    It's obviously aliens studying our planet so they can prepare for an invasion. Mulder and Scully are right, the truth is out there.

    Hay op, i saw one of these months ago im in north dublin near the sea front it must have been massive cause it looked like it was way out by the coast and usually plane's are tiny when i see them flying over that way and this thing was big like id have tos say about 3 time's the size of a plane , it was big redish orange amber glowing ball like those, I was putting out the bins and i looked up and could see it in the sky and i was like what the **** , is that an asteroid , no it cant be because its not moving then it starting to fly around in wierd diagonal directions and then it it just vanished.
