Saffy Posted April 10, 2010 Author Share Posted April 10, 2010 OOh shush .. I let off my FIRST successful chinese lantern last week. I was SO SO impressed with myself. I bought it from The Works (99p) ... whereas the others I got were from E Bay 5 for however much .. I forget ... they were useless! This one filled and lifted ... hit the house, so everyone laughed and we expected a disaster .. but when we went to the other side of the house it had lifted high into the sky ... a beautiful red lantern. It was probably lucky that we werent having a drought because it hovered over the woods before burning out and ... disappearing ... but it was awesome. (I'm easily pleased) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jillybabes Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 We saw it in Shiregreen, we thought it was a UFO too, it was big and bright and orange and it hovered for a while then just disappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
