The moon was mistaken for a "bright, stationary" UFO which had been loitering for at least half an hour, by a confused local in South Wales who made a 999 call to the police.
Today officers released a transcript in order to highlight the time wasted by unnecessary 999 calls.
The bizzare conversation ran as follows:
Control: "South Wales Police, what's your emergency?"
Caller: "It's not really. I just need to inform you that across the mountain there's a bright stationary object."
Control: "Right."
Caller: "If you've got a couple of minutes perhaps you could find out what it is? It's been there at least half an hour and it's still there."
Control: "It's been there for half an hour. Right. Is it actually on the mountain or in the sky?"
Caller: "It's in the air."
Control: "I will send someone up there now to check it out."
Caller: "OK."
After the police patrol car arrives, the script reveals the exchange between the control room and the police officer sent to the scene.

This won’t happen again, because if the Muzzies have their way in the UK, people will only be seeing a crescent moon.
The moon shines over Wales. If they have moonshine in Wales, that might explain it.

Al Gore:”Duh. What’s the bright light in the sky?”
Tipper:”It’s the Sun, Honey.”
Al Gore:”Well why don’t they turn it off in the daytime?”
Tipper:”Go sell some carbon credits, Honey. And don’t forget to pay the electric bill!”

This has got to be a joke or prank.

WHA’S FU’?
I saw a sparrow pu’ a barrow
Wha’s fu’? Wha’s fu’?
I saw a sparrow pu’ a barrow
Wha’s fu’ noo?
I saw a sparrow pu’ a barrow
An’ a lintie draw a harrow;
And ye’re a’ blin’ drunk a-gain, But I’m jolly fu’.
“I saw a louse chase a mouse
Around the riggin’ o’ a house.
“I saw the man in the moon,
Driving tackets in his shoon.
“l saw an eel chase the deil
Roon aboot the spinnin’ wheel.
It’s in the third verse.
When I come home, so drunk I couldn't see-oh,
There I saw a horse where no horse should be-oh.
I said unto me wife, 'Tell this to me-oh,
How come a horse there where no horse should be-oh?'
'Ye old fool, ye blind fool, now can't you so well see-oh,
'Tis nothing but a milk cow me mother sent to me-oh.'
'Long ways I've travelled, a hundred miles or more-oh,
Saddle on a milk cow I never seen before-oh!'
Things go downhill (and get bawdier) from there.

UFO. A luminous cratered sphere, out there. The stationary object wobbly objects, plural where my index fingers are pointing.
