STRATHCLYDE JOLTED BY MYSTERIOUS TREMORS
Strange earth tremors have rocked Scotland's Strathclyde region
twice in the past couple of weeks.
In mid-December, a strong tremor shook the multi-million-pound
Centre One building in Stewartfield. "More than 30 Inland Revenue
(the UK's tax agency--J.T.) workers were evacuated... Desks rocked,
computer screens flickered and windows rattled as employees were
whisked to a safety zone. The tremor triggered emergency readings at
several seismological stations in Scotland."
During the early hours of Monday, December 22, 1997, a second round
of tremors struck the East Kilbride area, 30 miles (48 kilometers)
southeast of Glasgow.
"Frightened residents in Greenhills, Westwood and Calderglen have
reported another round of tremors...A number of people called the
(East Kilbride) News to say they had been all shook up by a quake in
the early morning hours..."
"'It was like a low overhead thunder directly above the house,' said
Aileen Wilson, 39, from Gasgoyne, Westwood. She said that she
"feared for her seven- month-old baby daughter when the tremor
started just before 7 a.m."
The tremor "'was followed by a series of noises like fireworks going
off,' she explained, 'It sounded like a gas explosion coming from
the Westwood playing fields. I jumped out of bed and lifted my baby
Lynsay. Everything in the room was shaking. It lasted quite a long
time.'"
"Thomas Stewart, 39, from Carnoustie Drive, Greenhills, heard
deafening whirring noises when his windows shivered violently around
7 s.m."
'"It sounded like a rocket,' said the Ministry of Defence worker.
'I'm puzzled as to what exactly is going on and would like an
answer."'
"Glenn Ford of the British Geological Survey in Edinburgh said,
'This was NOT an earthquake and went on for too long for a sonic
boom. It is very strange, but we are getting readings on our
instruments, but the actual cause remains a mystery so far." (See the
East Kilbride News for December 30, 1997, "Mystery Tremors," page 3.

UFOs SEEN OVER BEDFORD AND IMMINGHAM, UK
Two UFO sightings were reported in the United Kingdom last week,
over Bedfordshire and Humberside.
On Wednesday, January 14, 1998, at 6:10 p.m., Andi T. was in a car
"near the roundabout (rotary) where the (Motorway) A6
Luton-to-Bedford road meets the Bedford By-pass" when a UFO flashed
by overhead. The sighting took place about 60 miles (96 kilometers)
north of London.
"A bright light shot across the sky about a mile from the
roundabout," Andi reported. "This light was like a shooting star
except it lasted a lot longer and had a tail. Not long after I
witnesses this light, I saw two lights at the horizon (near Bedford),
but those objects didn't move any nearer to me." (Email Interview)
On Sunday night, January 4, 1998, at about 11 p.m., a UFO described
as "a yellow harvest moon" hovered above a residential neighborhood
in Immingham, on the river Humber, approximately 75 miles (120
kilometers) northeast of Sheffield.
The object was first seen by a woman in the house, who immediately
called her relatives to come and look. Among the relatives was Paul
H., a local skywatcher. "There was a harvest moon in the wrong part
of the sky--too low, too large and too yellow," he said. "Whatever it
was, it was at about rooftop height, under conditions of low cloud.
We saw the 'moon' from upstairs, and from there the 'moon' appeared
to be at the same elevation as us. It appeared to be big, as is a
harvest moon, but the actual moon had already been seen about one
hour earlier by me, much higher up in the sky. The (UFO's) colour was
yellow. I got out my 30mmX30mm telescope for a better look."
Paul estimated the UFO's size as "about ten meters (33 feet) in
length."
"After five minutes of discussion and telescope viewing, we checked
from another angle from another room, but in the time I moved from
one room to another, it had moved so as to be no longer visible... I
went back to my room, and it appeared that the 'moon' was rapidly
being covered by cloud--much like watching an eclipse," he noted,
adding that, because of the overcast, "nothing was visible above 50
degrees" from the horizon. (Email Interview)
