Chinese Lanterns

Maybe I'm going nuts but is anyone in Dublin seeing Chinese lanterns in the sky? I'm seeing a few drifting from SW to NE over Raheny. The first one had me completely baffled - really looked like a powered, silent craft.

They have proven very popular the past 2 years, I think with thanks to UTV (it's a feature of one of their intromissions between programmes).

Seanie.

I seen somthing bright goin across the sky last week here in sligo, as i watched it i realised it was a chinese lantern, heard alot about these the last while and hadnt seen one til last week
their mad looking things:ohmy:

yea, they can be very deceptive if you havent heard of them and you see one in the sky.

I was just in the shop a wee while back and what did I see for sale,
