Mysterious lights in the sky above Malmesbury last night have puzzled reader Jane Nichols.
She contacted the Gazette to ask if anyone else had seen them at 7.15pm and knew what they might be.
She said: "I live near Malmesbury and at about 7.15pm saw two hazy lights darting about in the sky.
"At first I thought they were kids playing with torches, but it become evident that the light source was not coming from the ground "The lights were darting about like two large, hazy fireflies - too fast and random to be aircraft.
"When they got nearer to denser cloud I could see a cone of light eminating from them, like headlights in fog.
"We watched them for at least 20 minutes, but when I went back outside at about 8pm they had gone."

Last night at about 7.10pm I got bored and went into the shed to give the old time machine another run out around the town. Having first entered the station yard in search of big bore exausts and failing to find any I decided to pop over to Hullavington in cyber phase mode with stealth partially set to stage one. As I approached the Apaches I realised my sisters old push bike had hung up on the coal doors of my time machine. This blew it as I was quickly spotted as a flying bicycle with out rider. The Apaches were onto me straight away so I tried hiding in the clouds. It didn't work as in the panic I knocked off the stage one stealth and now being completely visible to their night vision goggle they lit me up with their spots so as their ground controllers could lock on visually. Of course I had ultimate superiority with the time shift boosters engaged and left them chasing their own tails. This is probably when Jane noticed the lights as to confuse every one I put my super candle on auto random. Then warped on gamma 4 back to Malmesbury. Well spotted Jane but nothing out of the ordinary. Just wait until I let Wiggles loose in it next week then there will be some fun in the Darkest Depths of Strange Wiltshire. Be afraid very afraid.
