OK, this takes the biscuit. Any other idiot/moron/prat/Darwin award nominee I have mentioned on this blog has nothing on this person. It happened in Wales, and is further proof that Welsh people should NOT, I repeat NOT, be allowed out on their own.

A person rang up the police on the 999 emergency number to report a ‘bright object in the sky above the mountain’ near their house. They went on to comment that “it’s been there for 30 minutes, and it’s still there”. Now, it could be anything. Strange atmospheric effect. Weapons testing. UFOs. But it wasn’t.

IT WAS THE BLOODY MOON. After a police officer went out to the scene to follow up these reports, he took (presumably) one look and when talking to a colleague who asked him over the radio if he had checked it out, he simply responded ‘Yes. Its the moon.’

Now, what next? Someone calling up at lunch time to complain about a hot, firey ball which is menacing them from the sky? Loitering glittery objects at night? White, fluffy objects throwing water on them? Times like these make you wonder how humankind ever made it beyond the cave.
