The last couple of nights i've seen bright orange lights flying through the sky.
I think they were paper lanterns though

The farmers hate those lanterns coz they've got wire bits in them which farm animals can injure themselves on.

The lanterns look really good, but I'm amazed they are legal. Surely animals aside they are a (small) fire risk, they can't all burn out before coming down can they?
