Hi everybody, i saw the report a welsh guy put in today and decided i would do the same as my sighting was roughly around the same time and a short distance across the water in Wales, maybe they could be correlated. I previously did not want to report it because i had put it in the back of my mind for a while, but recently i have been insatiable about researching the phenomena.Well one day while on shift rotation i decided i would go body boarding,so i got to the beach, pulled on my wet suit walked down the cliff on to the beach.While i was standing there contemplating the size of the waves as i was a novice, also i had no buddy with me, i noticed that the waves were pretty big, maybe to big!, so i wondered how the waves were getting so big so close to the beach, then i just turned right around and looked up at about 70 degrees, and there was this big chrome almost mirror like sphere floating in the sky, it was pretty impressive in size too..i thought hold on..it cant be..so i turned around looking back at the sea..(id heard stories from friends), so i turned around and looked at it again, and it was still there! clear as day shining in a clear blue sky, and also, it hadn't moved, so i kept looking at it and tried to reference as much as i could about it. Its distance was hard to make out but i reckon maybe 500 yards/meters away roughly, so in my head i counted how long in seconds i was looking at it(15 seconds), then i thought to turn round look at the sea again, then i looked back at it, to make sure it wasn't anything like a balloon floating or something like that, just to be sure, and it was still there!..i thought this is amazing!! and looked at it, turned to look at the sea again counted 10 seconds looked back and it was gone! 10 seconds in a clear sky and it was gone!..then i noticed a women on the beach walking her dog(whom i hadn,t noticed before) and was going to ask her did she see it, but for some reason i didn't ask her,needless to say i didn't go body boarding either as the waves were too scary. I dont think i even told anybody about it for a good while after..strange! but true..I cannot discount what i have seen, so i keep an open and thoughtful mind to all serious reports. I dont like timewasters or people who make pranks(but i too was very skeptical at one time) . Now ive said it..there you go. Happy days=).
