Happy 43rd anniversary!
To mark the day - today - 43 years ago, when the flying saucer(s) visited Westall, I will attach some basic numbers to give you an idea of how many people have been contacted by me, so far, and what they said they saw.
According to the class photos, there were approximately 485 people at Westall High School in 1966. Anecdotally it has been said that around 200 people witnessed the flying saucer(s), or the evidence for their visit - the circles - and I think that rough number is probably not too far off the mark. One day soon, I am hoping to come up with a more definitive number.
As you can see I have contacted quite a few people, but I still have a long way to go - yes, even after almost four years!! (And, of course, not all the people I have contacted saw something, or remember seeing something, and I always try to faithfully record that to in my database.)
So, here are the numbers:
