Gorebridge Alien Base

Gorebridge Alien Base
Case Notes
Andrew Hennessey

Gorebridge has an alien base in plain view and has been part of the rich and colourful tartan of Scottish history both ancient and modern.
The non-humans there seem to have wanted me to have images of their stuff probably because they want more open dealings with Humanity.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY7dwp9qHcY

the base is located at http://www.drink.to/alienmine

and its my advice not to go there unless you are specifically invited.

As yet - no response at all from anybody ... that is either because the ideas in the images are so mundane that its passe to even think of them as unusual or identifiable - or people are being switched off - and their processes of recognition are being disabled.

They were pretty cool about me taking pictures of their stuff … especially their gun platform and you know of course that they can just switch the ordinary human being off etc etc etc

all the original images are of course available for scientific scrutiny etc

NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH, GOREBRIDGE

Gorebridge, approximately 15 miles south of Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital continues to be displaying all the hallmarks of an alien occupation zone.
Previous reports have spoken of; massive low level ships and witnessed morning abductions, operational stargates near the cavern systems, desperate spooks trying to get a handle on the alien manoeuvres, and over flying ships at rooftop height, black choppers, cattle mutilations on film, multiple sightings, lights at the old mine, alien materialisations, greys photographed in the woods, holographic hardware that mimics military activity, and ships chasing cars down the local road.

Within the last week, beginning March 2008, there have been three sightings.
One by John H who reports a big flat glowing white object zig zagging over the small towns of Gorebridge and Newtongrange. Another local who also claims to be an alien Federation commander claims to have seen the same object on the same night further down the main road the A7 moving East to West from the direction of Goblin Halls to the Pentland hills.
Another man from the north of the small town of Gorebridge Mr D also reports seeing a glowing white object the size and shape of a ten pence coin at arms length which makes it a pretty big ship. This ship was static over Gorebridge.

Previous reports have highlighted Jackie Gillies’ encounters at the old Blinkbonny mine, Gorebridge, known to locals as ‘the camp’ told of locals being driven from there whilst collecting young pine trees to sell at Christmas by a huge green glowing eye that chased them in the dark.
Other tell of lights in the sky over the old mine area, and Jackie himself has met an alien Grey there whilst out walking who had ‘elephantine’ wrinkled grey skin, tattoos and glowing blue eyes.

It has recently come to light that another Gorebridge family has had strange close encounters there too, from 1998.
They had noticed lights in the sky that seemed to lift off from there.
The son had gone out walking on his own and had taken the trail through the mine area, noting that he was visibly on his own. Next thing there is an eight foot tall bare chested shaven headed barbarian walking behind him braving the Scottish weather no doubt on his way to play a film extra in some Mad Max movie.

In November 2007 on the same afternoon that I photographed greys in the local woods at Crichton castle who appeared to be visibly operating machinery, we drove past the farm where Jackie filmed all the cattle getting harvested and regularly uplifted and rendered, and we headed the short distance down the road to the old Blinkbonny mine aka ‘the camp’.
I now wonder whether it’s called the camp because all the aliens are camped up there …
As we approached by car … a large dark 4x4 swept past us and went up to the mine entrance, turned and came back down towards us.
As it passed us I could clearly see two suited middle aged executive type gentleman and I watched the vehicle in my rear view mirror noting that it went passed us and stopped and turned again.
This time it went up the roads that we would be returning on.

We went up to the camp .. not seeing any of the parked ships that people have alleged seeing there and we turned and headed back.
As we went back down the road, the same 4x4 came towards us again this time occupied by two casually dressed but worldly looking younger and fitter men.
Somehow the occupants of that 4x4 totally shifted their appearance within a couple of minutes.
On a more sinister note flashearth satellite photography of the Blinkbonny mine shows that there are stacks of six to ten foot red barrels or vats being brought in and left for collection, storage and uplift by these alien agencies whilst in and above the surrounding woods and hedges can be seen lines of alien observation droids or ships. Numerous burned out cars in that vicinity could discourage locals from approaching during peak alien activity, whilst regular incoming silent military jets at the height of the mine on the hill top are also reported.

One night recently Jackie had been at home and had seen strobing blue light outside his window. Immediately thinking police or fire vehicle he looked out and there was no vehicle there.
Then the blue lights were inside his house.
The G family have been wakened since the start of 2008 almost every night between 3.30 and 4 am by a noise or event.
As has the neighbours.
One neighbour describes it as being like a snowball hitting a window.
Mr G notes that he has been able to hear rising notes of variable pitch not unlike the ones I personally heard at Rosyth.
The ET’s shift the pitch of some tone generator in keeping with your metabolic or brain activity trying to tune into your life.
Mr G has noted this too, March 2008.
When he hears the use of the tone machinery he will go to his window and standing outside in the garden, is the same grey alien with the heart shaped head that he filmed in the low flying holographic chopper 150 feet from his door.
Mr G says that this alien is trying to communicate with him, possibly attempting to tie him up with the local exodus of greys at the small Stargate, December 2007, near the caverns at the Limekilns, Middleton.
This interaction has become incessant with obvious interference on domestic life with the movement of household objects, and also co-incidentally with the death of the rabbit in the garden hutch outside.

Mr G always seems to get the important UFO photos and is usually in the right place at the right time.
He has been able to film alien lights moving about a bedroom at night, whilst a UFO was overhead.
He was able to watch the operational Stargate in use one night too and spoke of a glowing blue white portal about ten feet across that opened up that cast no light on the local vegetation.
He has witnessed massive ships offloading supplies overhead there and claims to have been able to see through space at that time to the plains and cities of Mars.

The grey that operates the tuning device every night at 4am is allegedly communicating to Mr G, and this being allegedly seems to reflect back at Mr G his best expectations.
It seems to be looking to present an uplift and exit scenario from planet Earth, to a place far beyond human expectations and issues.
There is no guarantee whatsoever that the souls of their targets would be safe from disintegration, loss or deficit, as they tend to suggest to him that his future levels of operancy within their collective would compartmentalise the human subject in terms of;
The sight of an owl, the hearing of a bat, the speed of a fly, the strength of a lion … its either, or, never all at once …
Such ideologies are alien to human beliefs and expectations – it is as if what it is to be humanoid is being divested.
This is a process that the ancients knew of.

Psalms 139:
1 O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me.
2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.
7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.

Mr G has also had beings glowing gold materialise in the back of his car, noting a head and shoulders in the passenger seat behind him in his mirror that vanished when he turned around.

As a psychic and Seer Mr G may well have his relatives on his case urging him to think about where his souls journey will take him.

My own case is linked to the alien experiment at Gorebridge too as my parents both came from there. Indeed there is a distant link with myself and Mr G’s family.

Other people in this locality have been awakened by this noise and activity too.
One night, November 2007, on looking above the town .. a strange slow moving ship with small wings that had blue fork lightning streaking out from both sides of the craft. An eerie and somewhat gothic sight.

Other locals have noted Black helicopter activity near a derelict school at Oxenford castle in July 2007.

The ongoing saga of Gorebridge which has included sensational photographs of the machinery the aliens use to harvest the cattle they then render, the photo of the top half of a cow flying through the air, photos of greys in a chopper 150 foot off the ground in a built up area, and Dukes of Hazzard type UFO chases down the A7 is not simply centered around one family.
Regular reports about takeoffs being sighted from the local Pentland hills and overflys at Mayfield near Edinburgh point to more business than usual happening now.
In keeping with the greater global picture UFO activity as lights in the sky in general is on the increase, but at Gorebridge there are a more than usual amount of stories about greys in on the ground and amongst the locals.
These encounters, usually somewhat sinister are on the increase here too.




Gorebridge – ALIENS AT NIGHT
Andrew Hennessey

Gorebridge is a small ex-coalmining town about 15 miles south of Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital.
Previously reported from there, the Gillies family who had been experiencing multiple abductions and who had been filming sensational footage of low flying UFO’s, cattle mutilations and strange lights in peoples bedrooms.
Other witnesses from around there have been starting to come forward many with strange close encounter stories of their own.
There were local reports last year of a big mutilated deer hanging high up in a tree and of on the ground alien activity in and around the local woods. This culminated last year in myself getting pictures of Greys in the local woods at Crichton castle along with some of their technology.

The recent Dalhousie castle close encounter December 2007 which was the sighting of a huge ship at treetop height corroborated by witnesses is only a mile from Gorebridge and indeed UFO’s have been filmed earlier pursuing a car down the main road called the A7 which runs the mile between Newtongrange and Gorebridge.

The cameraman has been complaining that for the last seven weeks from the beginning of 2008, as regular as clockwork at about 3.30 am that he and his family are awakened by some strange event in the night.
On enquiring, the family upstairs are also awakened.
Another witness Mr X immediately went to his window and saw a strange police car going past as if by co-incidence.
It might have been a hologram.

The event might be an area effect noise or it might be a regular nightime visit from the Greys whose ships have previously been filmed at rooftop height over the house.
It is not infeasible that Gorebridge is replete with alien technology at street level.
Indeed not that far away in Gorebridge a lady claims visitation by beings that are scanning her DNA and that they are part of some humanoid species that look human who need to do biomedical research.
In that case the being identifies himself as Alda which reminds me of Alan Alda the actor who starred in the Korean war drama MASH about the mobile field hospital.
This being called Alda has an alleged army at his disposal called Mendaps and other technicians and counsellors, one of whom claims to have been able to help restructure the mind of Mrs X for more advanced things.

In the meantime Mr Gillies feels that he is drawn towards a local operational portal which he has witnessed operating on numerous occasions.
The field in which the portal is situated is local to the underground limestone cavern system at which there have been numerous sightings of beings by local gamekeepers and shepherds over the years.
One local gamekeeper reports that there is a low light under the clouds over a local hill on a regular basis near there.
The portal area is probably no bigger than ten by ten feet and can be seen some nights switched on as an area of glowing turquoise which strangely sheds no light on the local vegetation. Perhaps because the frequencies of the light are not of this vibrational rate.
It could be seen operating from a local small road, though some nights it is not operational.
Mr Gillies feels that should he get to close to this artefact that he would be acquired by the Greys on watch and beamed out to some destination that he would not disclose.
Certainly I have images of their camouflage technology taken a couple of miles away at Crichton castle which is technically part of the same cavern system.
The local Greys hide under a triangular or conical force field like a tepee tent of energies that takes the local environmental colours and patterns with a stippling design.

It seems that the Greys have been attempting to get the attention of the neighbourhood around Gorebridge and Mr Gillies suggests that they do all their work at rooftop height just above the street lighting and regularly move about getting on with whatever they are doing with the local population.
Indeed my own parents come from that town and I myself have a history of abduction attempts and Greys getting in my face.
Indeed it could be argued that I am distantly related to the Gillies clan at Gorebridge.

Over the area of the extensive cavern system that also takes in Rosslyn to the west and Gifford and Goblin Halls to the east there have been regular sightings historically and also more recently.

A Gillies family friend based in Newtongrange reported on February the 13th 2008 that for approximately one hour over the skies in that area e.g. Bonnyrigg, a spherical UFO was seen to fly round and round in tight circles.
It was not a plane or a helicopter and had no conventional lights and was not a Jet stacking on approach to Edinburgh airport.
The entire UFO presented 360 degrees light as it flew around and turned away, and it had no strobes and other landing lights.
The main landing front floodlights on a circling jet would only be intermittently visible as they do not rotate.
The UFO was visible as the size of a 5 pence piece (cent) at arms length and changed colour from orange to blue to yellow.
The witness David X of Newtongrange texted his friends during the sighting and two other men as a result also witnessed the UFO.

Special Ops harassment of the Gillies is less overt these days though mr Gillies relates that the Interstellar Executive who wanted to know what the alien experiment was with Comet 17P Holmes has not continued his intimidating contact.
Mr Gillies suggested that the images of the dark interrogation room that he was sent as an incentive to co-operate was part of a Military Operation that claimed to be part of the Nation State of the United Kingdom as the person used the name ‘Windsor’. He was reported to be barking like a robot though that things would go easy if he told … though this spook had clearly nothing to do with the protection of Eastenders and other such social soap operas from alien intrusion.

Mr Gillies relates that the alien experiment that was allegedly taking place was the deliberate destruction of Comet Holmes at its closest proximity to Mars.
This could have two effects.
The first could be the beneficial harvesting of water from the ice comet that would ultimately precipitate on Mars, or, the dust from the destruction of the comet could disrupt the emerging Martian ecosystem and the growing season of the many forests and alleged agriculture that have been spotted there.

At the moment though, February 2008, activity in Gorebridge appears to have become more overt again and we await further reports from our witnesses.

TAKING THE GORE OUT OF GOREBRIDGE
Andrew Hennessey


The recent escalation of alien activity at Gorebridge near Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital city has taken, for me, a familiar format.
Our alien invaders do rather know how to ‘mix it’ using all the aberrant archetypes in the human pantheon.
Mind you – if you could walk at 50 miles per hour and could shapeshift into absolutely anybody whilst kicking the fortune cookies out of Bruce Lee – then it is surely no surprise that aliens want to party right in the middle of a UFO hotspot.
Previously reported and filmed, our space brothers dropping off a carry out in the local woods, and then aliens flying some machine that looked like a helicopter at ground level through this small town.
These guys do know how to throw a party.
Indeed our cameraman did film a UFO over a house then the upstairs bedroom had two floating silvery lights in it. We suspect though that that was just a couple of his neighbours returning from a night out at the Lunar Hilton. Elsewhere in the neighbourhood people are reporting strange howls in the night air, unusual silences for the countryside and a UFO has been filmed buzzing a car on the local main road that runs past the woods. It followed the car up the A7 from the village of Newtongrange to the woods at Gore Glen. This on film.

Imagine my lack of surprise therefore to hear that the cameraman had on film some kind of bounced furrowed track marks in a local field that terminated in a large round area of flattened crop and soil.
Going back to investigate though, there was this huge bonfire and party going on that looked rather strange whilst in the night air hung the stench of rotting carcasses.
A local Deer mutilation had recently left locals wondering how the big beast had ‘got up there’.

So our two investigators didn’t immediately approach the area to see if some parked UFO had switched on its cloaking device.
The camerman returned the next day to investigate the UFO parking lot and to his surprise there was an obvious witch in black and red conducting some weird ritual right in the area he was about to investigate.
Realising that this was starting to look like a cross between Predator meets the Wicca Man he backed off.
Filming from a distance he also filmed a very square looking angular piece of cloud over that area. I looked at it and thought … it did look square and had a geometrical centre piece symmetrically in the middle.
The cameraman filmed the Dumfries and Galloway ship and other easy to recognise high definition UFOs – but I must admit whatever was going on there wasn’t too obvious.
I’ve seen another square alien ship generate cloud myself and we actually have a great clear photo of that where it turned up at Gorebridge.

One thing was for sure though the strong stench of rotting meat in the air has been ever present for a couple of weeks out there near Catcune.
Its also strange that at the height of all this bizarre activity, the local farmer has moved two dairy herds into the adjacent fields around this strange site.
How co-operative is that ?
Meantime though the flattened vegetation and the furrows ploughed by the landing ship have mysteriously disappeared.
Myself, I’m well aware that these beings have control over the structure of vegetation and can regrow plants overnight.
I’ve personally seen them make like an octopus with big tree roots.
Next up another local complains that he saw some weird lady in a green ballgown drifting over the field where all this activity has been taking place.
At this point I’m contacted by the local citizen intelligence officer responsible for the issuance of AntiSocialBehaviourOrders wishing to evaluate my journalism in a .gov.uk context.
I can deduce from that that whatever is going on there that is alien is ENDORSED by our government.
That may be culling some Old Deer, Dairy herds or indeed as it is approaching the summer solstice and full moon it may be that some other more sick activity may be taking place in aptly named Gore Glen.
I’ve been approached in the usual way by government types and to quote one of them .. ‘You can’t tell the people ..’ (mate)
Well its obvious that if this guy dares to win down at Gore Glen he would discover what Thatcher in all her pride did not know or had not the IQ to guess … The People Already Know !!!

ALIEN CATTLE FARMING AT GOREBRIDGE EDINBURGH
Andrew Hennessey


On the evening of Tuesday 21st August 2007 Jackie Gillies drove down his usual route to the portal area at the local Crichton Castle ruin, where the last week he had filmed a UFO taking off from that vicinity and had thereafter met two strange ladies on the path from the castle.
Tuesday night as Jackie rounded up his dogs to head home, a strange young man from a black car followed him round the castle walls.
Crichton castle reputedly haunted with ghosts and strange watchdogs reputedly werewolves and all sorts of monsters that could keep folks away on nights such as these.
Also adjacent to a massive cavern system.

As Jackie drove down the narrow country road back to Gorebridge, he passed the farm and its lands that had previously moved a dairy herd adjacent to where some alien activity on the ground had been taking place.
As he stopped the car – he heard then saw three low flying military jets roar over the neighbourhood alerting individuals outdoors that some sort of military thing was happening or about to.

Next up Jackie films two UFO’s … one a big cyclindrical vertically stacked device with a big tube coming out of it. It had a glass domed control room on the top.
He has some clear pictures of that.
Flying above it was a smaller escort craft.
Next into view – the sight of half of a bull – the top half rising up into the air.
Presumably being gathered into the container ship through the extended tube – like a combine harvester.
He has a clear photo of that.
The aliens perhaps showing their traditional interest in the cattle brain, its lymphatic system and its cerebro-spinal fluid.

For some reason best known to the extra terrestrials, the scout patrol ship did not stop Jackie from filming this transaction.
Perhaps the local farm has a legitimate contract to supply a herd to a meat packing firm.
So what ? as long as its legitimate and humane.
For some reason, Jackie has been allowed to film many different things that show there is an alien social infrastructure embedded in and endorsed by pseudo-human interests on the planets surface.

Local deep alien bases with simple sales contracts with human cattle farmers .. what could be wrong with that picture .. we see it all the time at walmart without the aid of levitational tools.
Let us hope that this harvester has no beef with us humans.
Certainly darth vaders young apprentice with the light sabre appears to make short work of the average herd.
I get the feeling that messing about with these aliens could be a big mis steak J

THE GOREBRIDGE STORY

By Andrew Hennessey

Gorebridge is a small, ex-coal mining town about 15 miles south of Edinburgh, the Scottish capital city. Today it forms part of an increasingly urbanised network of similar satellite towns on the outskirts of the capital.  My family originally comes from this area, and like so many others, its men had been miners.  Drafted to fight in both world wars, they returned to a community that was about to be changed forever.  For, in amongst the hustle and bustle of these human affairs there had also been a long-simmering, non-human agenda of secret meetings and whispered stories that was about to explode onto the human stage for all to see.

THE BALLAD OF THE GORE, April 1916, JBH

Published by the Committee of Borthwick Horticultural and Industrial Association in Aid of the Red Cross (local) and Newington House Training Home for Scottish Soldiers and Sailors Blinded in the War, the ballad goes like this:

‘… Proud Arniston; in ‘fairs o’ state

for ages Laird and son

Soldiers, Lawyers, Statesmen great

richt sterlin’ work has done,

Wae on the day shouldt frae’t be gane

The auld race o’ Dundas;

May that ne’er be, but lang there reign

its Leddy and its Lass ….’

The Gorebridge story with its ‘auld races’ probably started within the mists of ancient Scotland, weaving its mystical paths amongst the legends of the Biblical ‘Fall’ and the wars of Heaven. Stone-lined tunnel networks link archaic stone circles and underground kingdoms to the creatures of Atlantis and activities of mankind on the Earth’s surface. These interactions and faerie stories have been collected into a rich tapestry of local folklore by noted collectors, such as Mary Macleod Banks in her British Calendar Customs, Vols. 1-3, 1937.

It is little wonder, therefore, that the fantasy fairytale writer, J.R.R. Tolkien, would take much of his inspiration from these marvellous tales of elves and goblins. To wit, many of the local place-names in and about the Gorebridge area are already known as part of Tolkien’s epic fantasy tale, The Hobbit and his trilogy, Lord of the Rings,  e.g. ‘Goblin Halls’ and the ‘Dunedain’.  Here, Tolkien’s superhuman ‘Rangers’ are named after the old name for Edinburgh, ‘Dunedain’, and his fictional faerie Kingdom ‘Lothlorien’ is similarly named after the kingdom of King Loth of the Lothians. The Lothians are the lands adjacent to the Scottish capital, Edinburgh, and have been observed as being very active as UFO window or entry areas both currently and in the last century, as well as places of faerie encounters during Medieval times. Indeed, in central Scotland, the Bonnybridge-Falkirk UFO triangle was at one point called the ‘golden circle’ due to the number of lottery wins that were happening there!

History also has it that Scotland is the land of the ‘Orcs’, another of Tolkien’s monsters borrowed from Scottish lore.  More recently, one of the local Lairds, a Sinclair, has laid claim to the mysterious Rosslyn Chapel bloodline, styling himself as the ‘Earl of Orcus’. It is very clear to anyone knowing this history that fantasy writer Tolkien found a rich seam of historic truths and half-truths to entwine into his modern classics.

Historically, the nature of the faerie story mutates to keep pace with mankind’s social appearances and technology, from flying chariots and coaches to dirigibles, ghost cars and silent jets.  Essentially, however, the beings responsible for these displays of strangely behaving, but often human-looking technologies, have also had a taste for what appears to be a long-standing agenda of human abduction. Folklore, both ancient and modern, affirms this. Apologists will try to argue that alien interference is for our own, long-term human ‘good’, pointing out, for example, that these advanced beings are trying to produce the DNA formula of an advanced human hybrid with unlimited potential. I would reply, however, with the question, “What highly advanced, allegedly interstellar race needs several thousand years to concoct an efficient hybrid?”

Pointedly, the agenda for mankind as many Scottish folklore collectors from the past have noted, e.g. Kirk (1697) and Campbell (1902), and as authors such as Nigel Kerner, Song of the Greys (1998), have more recently noted is much more likely to be sinister in nature, traditionally having taken the form of oppression against the human soul.

Gorebridge, approximately 15 miles south of Edinburgh, continues to display all the hallmarks of an active alien presence and occupation zone. Many of the encounters that have been experienced there can only be described as surreal, which Dr J.A. Hynek, the father of Ufology, characterised in his speech to the UN in November 1978 as ‘high strangeness’, an extreme ‘oddness’ symptomatic of alien encounters.

Above and over the area of an extensive cavern system that also takes in Rosslyn to the west, and Gifford and Goblin Halls to the east, have been regular UFO sightings, both historically and more recently. Reports from this area have spoken of observing massive low-level ships, of witnessing early-morning abductions, of seeing operational stargates near the cavern systems, desperate spooks trying to get a handle on the alien manoeuvres, over-flying ships and 40 spherical, black drones above Barleyknowe Road at rooftop height, black choppers, cattle mutilations on film, multiple sightings, lights at the old mine, alien materialisations, greys photographed in the woods, holographic hardware that mimics military activity, and of ships chasing cars down the local road, to name just a few.

One of several local witnesses at Gorebridge is John ‘Jackie’ Gillies, who, since 1999, has personally amassed a vast archive of local UFO footage.  For example, at the old Blinkbonny Mine in Gorebridge, John encountered a tall, grey alien on one of his regular walks out, known in ufolofgy as a ‘Grey’, who he later described as having “elephantine” grey, wrinkled skin, tattoos and glowing blue eyes, and whose telepathic powers were overwhelming.

Both the old mine and Roman camp (or fort) at Gorebridge are known together as ‘the camp’.  Locals have frequently observed this to be a place of disturbing activities and close encounters, e.g. a couple of local men were driven from there by what appeared to be a huge, glowing, green eye while out collecting pine trees to sell at Christmas, taking place in absolute darkness except for their torch.  Other locals also noticed strange lights in the sky that seemed to lift off from the same vicinity. Another incident is of a local man who had gone out walking on his own and had taken the trail through the mine area, noting at the time that he was visibly on his own. However, suddenly, out of nowhere, there appeared an eight-foot tall, bare-chested, shaven-headed, barbarian-like man or creature walking directly behind him, braving the Scottish weather as if comically on his way to play a film extra in some Mad Max movie.

The (Roman) camp is also known as Gowkshill. In Scotland a ‘gowk’ is a name given to someone who appears to be otherworldly and ‘away with the faeries’ in a stupid or awkward sort of way. Aptly named, there indeed appears to be a number of mysterious happenings in that neck of the Scottish woods, including the regular, but unexplained loss of livestock.

Another incident involves a friend and myself. As we drove up to the old Blinkbonny mine, aka ‘the camp’, we were approached from behind by a large, dark, 4x4 vehicle, which then swept past us and went up to the mine entrance, but then quickly turned and came back down towards us.

As it passed I could clearly see two suited, middle-aged executive-type men in the car, noting in my rear-view mirror that after it went past us it then stopped and turned again! This time, however, it proceeded to go up the same road we would be turning on to go back home. We continued our way up to ‘the camp’, but disappointed in not seeing any of the alien ‘ships’ that people have allegedly seen parked there, we simply turned and headed back down. As we drove along the road towards home, the same 4x4 came towards us, but this time occupied by two casually dressed, not suited as before, worldly-looking, younger and fitter men.  Where had the other two ‘men-in-black’ individuals gone? Somehow the occupants of the 4x4 we had seen just a couple minutes earlier had now totally shifted their appearance. Why? How? These questions remain unanswered.

Another odd occurrence in Gorebridge concerns a character called ‘Colonel Joe,’ an elderly military gentleman in a grey tweed suit who drove an old black classic Bentley. The Colonel had phoned John Gillies asking if he would meet up with him in nearby Vogrie Park to discuss some important information he had, but not before intercepting him en-route and putting a cloaking device on the bonnet of his car to “neutralise surveillance.” He proceeded to tell John about long-existing alien activity in the area, producing 1950s maps and stories that went all the way back to that bygone era.  On checking out this story I was able to spot Colonel Joe and his car on the camp road, taking a respectful glance at this modern-day observer and record keeper of Gorebridge’s alien trespassers, of which I, too, have a collection of alien images taken at this very same locality.

Another story takes place on a night in 2008 when John Gillies had been at his home in Birkenside, a village at the south end of Gorebridge.  He looked out of his window and saw what he thought was a strobing blue light, immediately thinking police or a fire vehicle.  However, on closer inspection there was no service vehicle outside and the lights were gone—the blue lights now inside his house.  However, this was not an isolated event.  Since the start of 2008 the Gillies family were awakened almost every night between 3.30 and 4 a.m. by either a noise or an event, as had several of their neighbours, describing one such event like a window being hit with a snowball in the middle of summer.

John Gillies has had many remarkable experiences, not easily explained except as acts of ‘high strangeness’, that curious calling card of alien presence.  On one such occasion he describes being able to hear rising notes of variable pitch for no reason whatsoever, these sounds simply manifesting. However, on eventually recognising the use of tone machinery, possibly being used to communicate, he went to his window and standing outside in the garden saw the same grey alien with the heart-shaped head that he had once filmed in a low-flying holographic chopper 150 feet from his door.  Was this alien trying to communicate, even possibly attempting to have him join the local exodus of greys that took place at the small stargate in December 2007 near the caverns at the Limekilns in Middleton? An answer would not be forthcoming as that invitation was left unheeded.

John was also able to watch this operational stargate at Middleton in use one night during one of his many night watches and spoke of seeing a glowing bluish white portal about ten feet across that opened up but cast no light on the local vegetation after it had opened. He then witnessed massive ships offloading supplies overhead and while this was happening claims to have been able to see through space to the plains and cities of Mars.

In contrast to this rather mild ‘star brother’ story above, however, is the story of how one night the Gillies family were awakened by a crash of glass downstairs and on going down to their living room witnessed thousands of glass fragments from the coffee table writhing on the floor like a snake or equally terrifying, the story of the family pet dog, a thickset Rottweiler, being lifted up by its throat high in the air by an invisible arm or of seeing a strange, slow moving, small-winged aircraft streaking out blue fork-lightning from both of its sides while flying low over the town, an eerie and somewhat gothic sight.

The ongoing events chronicled at Gorebridge are on the increase, without even including those untold numbers not recorded, nor do they centre on one family alone.  Those that have been recorded include photographs of the machinery that aliens use to harvest cattle which they then render, a photo of the top half of a cow flying through the air, photos of greys in a chopper 150 feet off the ground in a built-up area, too low for normal craft, as well as UFO car chases down the A7 road.  These events are almost inevitably sinister with respect to the Earth’s life forms.

Regular reports also include take-offs being sighted from the adjacent Pentland Hills and overflys at Mayfield near Edinburgh, which point directly to what is also now happening in and about the Gorebridge area.  There have been recent local reports of a big mutilated deer hanging high up in a tree, with further alien activity once again noted in and around the local woods. This increasing activity culminated last year in my being able to obtain pictures of ‘Greys’ in the local woods at Crichton Castle, along with close shots of some unknown technological artifact.

It is not unfeasible, therefore, nor does it take a great leap of faith to seriously consider that Gorebridge is likely replete with alien technology, operating not only at ‘the camp’ level and in the woods, but also at street level. Ex-special forces night footage shows white lights flashing here and there in the town at night. I have also taken pictures of some strange looking technology on peoples roofs with an alien figure running across one of these.  Indeed, not very far away from where these pictures were taken a lady (Mrs X) claims visitation by beings that are scanning her DNA and who have relayed to her they belong to a humanoid species who are alien but look human, and who need to do biomedical research. Their leader is called ‘Alda’, who has an alleged army at his disposal called ‘Mendaps’, as well as technicians and counsellors, one of whom claims to have been able to help restructure Mrs X’s mind for more advanced things.

John Gillies, himself, feels that he is mysteriously drawn towards a local operational portal, which he has witnessed operating on numerous occasions. The field in which this portal is situated is within the area of the underground limestone cavern system at which there have also been numerous sightings over the years of strange beings by the gamekeepers and shepherds who reside there.

On the evening of Tuesday, August 21, 2007 John drove down his usual route to the portal area at the local Crichton Castle ruin, adjacent to a massive cavern system, and reputedly haunted with ghosts, strange watchdogs, werewolves and various monsters to keep folks away on nights such as these. So far, nothing unusual had happened.  However, as John drove back to Gorebridge along the narrow country road, he passed a farm that had previously moved one of its diary herds near to where alien activity had been taking place, away from the CCTV cameras placed on all its stock pens.  He decided to stop his car, when suddenly he heard and then saw three low-flying military jets roaring over the neighbourhood, alerting individuals who were outdoors to a military exercise that was happening or about to happen. But what occurred next was quite astounding, even to John Gillies, a long-time UFO observer.  He began filming two UFOs, one, a large cylindrical, vertically upright device with a tube coming out of it and a glass-domed control room on top, with some clear pictures later turning out, and flying above it, a smaller escort craft.  Next, however, came the horrid sight of the top half of a bull, being thrust up into the air, snatched and mutilated in plain sight, away from the peace of its grazing.

During this past summer (2015) John Gillies and I investigated further reports from villagers in the Gorebridge area about fields “lighting up at night” between Gorebridge and the village of Carrington. Gillies was not surprised by this as he had recent footage of these same fields lighting up and then soon after, of huge ghostly oblong, container-like vehicles rising up through these fields before heading off.  He also had daytime footage of a strange tornado-like cloud on the ground at that exact same place (Scotland is not traditionally a place of tornadoes).  Are these events related?  Possibly.  What is certain is that this locality is as normal as an alien freight terminal.

Special Ops harassment of the Gillies is less overt these days, with one particularly intimidating contact with an executive-type figure who demanded to know about the alien experiment with Comet ‘17P/Holmes’ now thankfully stopped.  John Gillies relates, however, of unusual coercion tactics still being used, for example, of being sent images of a dark interrogation room as an incentive to co-operate with a military operation that claimed to be part of the Nation State of the United Kingdom, with the contact person using the name ‘Windsor’. This person appeared to be barking like a robot, with Gillies being warned that things would not go well for him if he told anyone.  However, this intimidation did not work, as John Gillies did not co-operate, nor did he keep quiet about this incident.

I was lucky to have a local personality who had operated ghost tours get involved with the unusual events happening at Gorebridge, but on the day I drove him around, he returned home to find thousands of dollars worth of stolen camera gear left on his doorstep, clearly off-putting. The local Member of Parliament at that time, David Hamilton, who was then contacted, declined to make any official issue of these matters, simply stating that all such reports coming out of Gorebridge were merely based on solitary ‘one-off’ events.  Interestingly, although we have been lucky to have support from the local press concerning the strange events that have occurred here, neither the witness stories nor abundant footage coming out of Gorebridge have ever made it to any of the so-called UFO Conferences.  What is certain is that for some reason, the events at Gorebridge are for the large part being ignored and for some reason, simply covered up.

Thus, despite the influx of new residents and housing at Gorebridge, a reinstated commuter railway and all the applications and media technology associated with the 21st Century, the run-of-the-mill alien agenda still operates business as usual here.  The local non-humans, be they faeries, greys, demons in silver suits, or seemingly friendly star brothers, just keep on doing what they have always done.  Whether or not these beings can maintain their grip on the psyche of the local humans, however, through their ongoing, sometimes terrifying, displays, remains to be seen.
