Egg over Eaglesham, EAST REN · United Kingdom
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was out for my usual walk and noticed bright light behind the trees. I thought to myself I didn't realise it was a full moon. I thought i might not need my torch afterall. As i was listening to an podcast i carried on walking behind the trees then i wondered where did the moon go. I thought perhaps it was the street light i saw. I wondered now where the moon was. I now keep seeing the moon like object ( very big and bright) one minute in my left, next minute on my right and i thought to myself moon can't change the position so fast. I started following the object until i got to an open farmland, then object started coming towards me . It was huge, bright and round . I started running as fast as i could. I turned around twice to see if it was behind me and it was keeping up with me. I ran into a lane leading to houses to catch my breath and went home. This was something i never saw before. Moon like huge moving object.
