On the 28th January 1967 a group of seven 10-11 year old boys were heading back to school after lunch. Suddenly there was a flash of lightning and a clap of thunder. According to 10 year old Alex Butler says they saw "a little blue man with a tall hat and a beard" who appeared "in a puff of smoke, " the boys ran towards him and he vanished, "in a puff of smoke". Then the boys saw him soon after in a different place, but as they neared he vanished again. So next time they saw him they hid in some bushes and could hear voices talking in a foreign language.
