I had been watching F1 live from Australia iwent out side for Sig at about 3.30am and saw a large white/ with a bit of pink colour ball 3 of them one large the size of a house 2 bed at the front of it was small ball the size of a car and one at the back the size large van the ball at the front and rear looked to me as if they were garding the Lange ball in the middle . I was only 15 feet from them they was only moving at slow walking speed and height of the lamp post totally without any sound. I had a very bad feeling that who or what was in the craft were evil . they wanted to be seen i have never forgotten this incident.
