I've seen these things in the sky over Stockport about 6 times now, they're never falling, always travelling as a plane would. On new years eve four of us saw one going along as usual but then split into 3 and go in different directions. Whatever these things are they seem to have a flight path over our house as we've only been there 6 months and seen them 6 times! I've seen mereorites falling before and they're definately not those and I live near Manchester airport and know for a fact they're nothing to do with planes. They are definately big balls of fire travelling through the sky. Weird!!!!!
