DERECK ROSE: WRITINGS

In the spring of 1990 me and my girlfriend were driving from London to south Devon in a red Renault 4. As we were going out of Totnes up onto Kingsbridge hill in the direction of Harberton ford. It was about 4.am in the morning and the sky was still dark and starry, but as I looked up, I saw what I thought was a star turning into a very bright light, and it was getting bigger and bigger so I turned to my girlfriend and said; “ thats too big to be a star I want to stop and have a look, so I drove further up the hill into a parking place where there were a couple of benches overlooking the town. We got out of the car and looked over Totnes and suddenly there was a spacecraft hovering over the town. The door of the craft opened and there were metallic kind of people (my only description) in the same form as human beings, and they were looking over the town as if they were surveying it for some purpose. My first inner feelings at the time was; one of dread and fear, and also of the close up encounter with this very mysterious and intelligent force, literally less than 100 metres from where we were standing, knowing that they had seen us, and couldv'e taken, or done us harm, seeing that we were the only living, moving creatures around that morning, because everything was as still as night, and all sensible people, creeping things and wild animals were still asleep. When I saw them, I gazed with my mouth wide open,  and i didn't blink my eyes for 10 seconds, until they finally closed up and hovered away like the speed of light. It was then that I blinked my eyes in amazement and wonder and said to my girlfriend; “ did you see that? Then she shooked her head like that churchill dog with the rocking head, and said ; “yes with her mouth opened. In the past I never believed anyone who told me about any Unidentified Flying Objects, but now that I have seen it for myself, I believe.
