I left my house in College Road in Margate one day to go to the shops. I noticed a large egg in the sky about 100 foot above the junction at the top of College Road.
I saw this object very clearly. The weather was perfect and the object was low in the sky.
The object simply looked like a white egg moving in a perfectly straight line at a very slow speed of about 15-20 MPH. It was orientated so that the little end of the egg was forwards. It had no windows or any marking and no exhaust or signs of propulsion methods.
It travelled over towards the Hospital in a perfectly straight line then turned and went off towards Broadstairs.
I watched it the entire time. I looked around and there were a few people walking up the road with their heads down. I really wished I had shouted to them to look up but for some reason I didn't.
This was no balloon.
It was small but hard for me to guess it's true size from 100 feet or less but I would guess it was too small to fit a human passenger in.
I don't know why but I got the impression it was doing a low level survey of the area. That idea immediately entered my mind as I was watching it.
