Any additional comments:
Sunday morning when the sun was rising and I was coming back from the paper shop, I noticed there were masses of strange looking clouds in the sky. As I was looking at these unusual clouds, I noticed a cylinder shaped object in a clear part of the sky and I was trying to figure out what it was because it wasn't moving. It was shining in the sunlight and it couldn't have been a helicopter because it was the wrong shape and it couldn't have been a plane because it wasn't moving. There was no sound except the from the wind and pigeons which were scared several times for no reason I could see.
Within a few minutes a big cloud went under the object, which made me realise that it was very high up and much larger than a plane! I hurried home (one minute away) and got my camera, in the hope that the cloud would clear again so I could take a picture. I went back to take my picture and after a few minutes that part of the sky and much of the sky was clear again but the object had gone! Could it have been some sort of a balloon? No, because where did it go in the time it took me to get my camera?
I think I must have seen a UFO!
