Duration: 10 seconds
No of observers: 3

Location: Lockerley (UK/England), , United Kingdom

Shape: Triangle

Bright white isoseles triangle shape seen darting about in the sky, twice.

I was on work experience from school and i was on my lunch break with a friend outside and i randomly looked up into the sky and i saw the image of an isoseles triangle in the sky, it was high up, bright white in colour and it was still, then it darted accross the sky faster than any aircraft i have seen, then moved from side to side a couple of times then disappeared. I went back inside and told one of the people i was working with and showed him where i saw it etc. Then later on in the day, i was driving into Salisbury with my mum when all of a sudden in front of us in the sky this triangle appeared again hovering, it stayed there for about 2 seconds, then dropped like a stone and vanished. So all in all, myself, my friend and my mum saw it. I still have no idea to this day what it was, the thing that intruiged me the most was when i went into work the following day the guy i had told about it the previous day he came up to me and said "you know that thing you saw yesterday?" and i said "yea" and he said "you didn't see it" and that was it. Since then i have wondered A - what it was, and B - what that guy found out about it to want to keep a it a secret. Weird.
