999 caller mistakes moon for UFO
Telegraph ^ | )ct. 28, 2011

The caller told police that he had seen a UFO with "big bright lights" hovering in his back garden.

Taking the call seriously the female operator can be heard logging the bizarre information before asking if the UFO was making any "engine noise".

The caller replied that it was not, telling her: "I thought it was an aeroplane at first and then its just hovering with all these lights on."

After being told local authorities would investigate his claims, the caller hung up, only to ring back minutes later to confess that he had made an embarrassing mistake.

When asked by the call handler what he had seen, the man replied sheepishly: "You're not going to believe this, you're not going to believe it, it's the moon."

Back in the day... newspapers needed filler items to fill a half inch or so of column space at the end of a story. The material generally fell into one of two categories: Busses running off of mountain roads in some third world hellhole and “ain’t them British crazy” items. This falls into the latter class.
