At first, it was just a very bright light, so large in the early morning sky, I presumed it was a star. Then the light went and it appeared to be a bright silver coloured oval shape, changing to a rounded shape as it rapidly moved away from me towards Lowestoft. It was some considerable distance away, but appeared larger in the sky than I would expect a standard airline aircraft to be. It was just below the cloud line.

The very bright, star like 'light' hung in the air for a few seconds, without blinking. I just presumed it was a star, and stared at it, trying to figure out if I had ever seen a star so bright in daylight. I was surprised to see it change from a bright light to a silvery metallic looking object which rapidly moved away.It was heading further away towards Lowestoft. I lost sight of it because of the trees lining the sides of the road.

I had just got onto the A12 at Blythburgh, having just passed the White Hart pub, and was travelling towards Southwold at about 8.30am. My father was in the Royal Air Force and I spent all my childhood on RAF camps, near runways. I am very familiar with the appearance of aircraft, aircraft lights and vapour trails. This object had no 'winking' lights, left no vapour trail on a fairly cloud free sky and moved far too rapidly to be an aircraft, in my opinion.
