#You saw the whole of the moon (and you didn't know what it was)

Police called out to a 999 call about an unexplained object in the night sky solved the mystery straight away for their operator—“It’s the Moon, over.”

But the emergency call meant the officers were sent out to a house in the valleys area of south Wales. They were told a “bright stationary object” was spotted above the unnamed caller’s home.

A recording of the call has been released as part of a police campaign asking people to use 999 appropriately. [BBC]

"Another caller rang asking for help when they wanted to vote for Rhydian on the TV programme X-Factor."

I am against the death penalty, but I think this person should be killed in public.
