UFO Crash NightBUFOG UFO Crash Night
Date: Monday 27th July 2009Time: 7.30pm onwardsVenue: Midland Red Social ClubTAKEN 
Watch the first stunning part of the best UFO TV series ever created, presented by movie legend Steven Spielberg. The series focuses on several families of contactees spanning multiple generations, beginning with the Foo Fighters of World War II and the Roswell UFO crash. X-Files has nothing on this! EUROPE'S ROSWELL - UFO CRASH IN ABERYSTWYTH 
Continueing the evenings theme of UFO crashes, we will be showing a fascinating documentary about a possible UFO crash which occured in Aberystwyth, Wales, back in 1983. Incredible yet lesser-known case. DISCUSSION CIRCLE - UFO CRASHES
Introducing a new feature of BUFOG meetings, this will give the members a chance to air their views and beliefs on particular aspects of the UFO phenomenon. 
Also here's the official synopsis about the above (Include these as well as above brief descriptions): Taken:
Taken spans five decades and four generations, and centers on three families: the Keys, the Crawfords, and the Clarkes. Nightmares of abduction by extraterrestrials during World War II haunt Russell Keys; the Roswell incident transforms Owen Crawford from ambitious Air Force captain to amoral shadow government conspirator; and an alien visitor impregnates an unhappily-married Sally Clarke. As the decades go by, the heirs of each are affected by the machinations of the aliens, culminating with the birth of Allie Keys, the final product of the aliens' experimentation and the key to their future. Europe's Roswell: 
On a dark winter’s night in January 1983, the sleepy Welsh village of Llanilar near Aberystwyth was buzzed by a strange flying craft, which hit trees, scattered shiny metal debris over four fields and flew off apparently unaffected. One farmer witnessed the debris and clean up operation; one national newspaper carried the story; one civilian investigation team made it to the site; one collection of strange metallic debris remains. Witness for the first time ever in graphic detail genuine pieces of a crashed UFO. Mark Olly is an author, musician, historian, archeologist and lecturer. Best known for writing and presenting the ITV Granada/Sky History Channel’s popular television series “Lost Treasures.” Here he presents this first investigation in a series of internationally important hidden mysteries. .

Wednesday 3rd September sees a great lecture coming to Birmingham, the great Terry Walters. Doors open at 7.30pm £4 members £5 non-members TERRY WALTERS COULD HE BE THE NEW NOSTRADAMUS? you can see and as you can read in Terry's book "Who on Earth am I" these images are straight from Terry's recall to the pages of his book. They are "ORION PEOPLE" who amongst other things are adept at healing, start travel and warning us of dangers.
In chapter six of his book Terry explains in great detail his Orion friends and the workings of the craft they use while travelling through space. If you thought that you would need some sort of mechanical navigation system...YOU WOULD BE WRONG! Read chapter six and see for yourself. 
Here is what Robert Bauval had to say after reading Terry's book."I have to acknowledge I was much impressed by Terry Walter's unusual telepathic abilities. Terry is an honest man with truly remarkable insights."
"Incredible stories, Incredible man"Ken Seddington: UFO UK Director world congress
"I have established solid evidence of Terry's claims."Omar Fowler: Flying Saucer Review EXCERPTS FROM TERRY'S BOOK
If you, as an explorer of your own past or future wish to share the highs and lows of what it is to ask "Who on Earth an I" If the echo of that question meets you with a frustrating silence then take a peek at the contents of the book with the same name. Your journey may have to be taken alone but it does not have to be a lonely one....
Psychic phenomena, Egyptian connections and extraterrestrial encounters it may sound like a work of fiction but it traces one man's journey through verified and documented FACTS.
What you will read about...
An impossible back operation years ahead of its time conducted by Orion's on one of their own.
Healing touch, healing vibrations conducted by Terry on various people some face to face others by remote healing.
International authors eliciting the guidance of Terry in a quest to answer age-old questions of our origins.
Meetings with medical experts who cannot explain Terry's spinal operation...NO ONE HERE HAS PERFORMED THIS OPERATION!UFO researchers turning to Terry for explanation and his TV appearances are written in graphic detail.
KINGS CROSS FIRE...a psychic link to the horrors that took the lives of so many...the second it happened!
BAD SPIRITS REMOVED...Some may think the church has the franchise on removing negative entities others are more astute than that. A request by a friend, a dark force and a chilling battle for good yet another chapter in the life of a psychic healer who has real friends in REALLY HIGH PLACES! (Orion).
INSIDE THE CRAFT...Not just a vague recall of his experiences with extraterrestrials but a detailed account and drawings of the interior of the Orion craft. With a system of touch and "thought-navigation" maybe NASA would do well to read?
WE ARE CONNECTED...When complete strangers approach you and ask "Where do I know you from" it is probably because they do. Unfortunately many of us cannot consciously recall our ancient memory our universal vibration that connects all living things. Terry has on many occasions vibrated with an energy signature that seems to attract like a moth to the light. Contained within the pages of this book are accounts of just such happenings and MUCH MUCH MORE...

Philip Mantle lecture 2nd August 2008.
Phil Mantle’s Alien Autopsy Lecture Review
By Dave Hodrien
On the evening of Sunday 3rd August, BUFOG was privileged to welcome renowned UFO investigator Philip Mantle to the monthly meeting to give a talk on the infamous Roswell alien autopsy video. Although many of us had seen the footage before, very few had previously heard about the findings and events Phil had to divulge…
Phil started his presentation with a full showing of the main footage. I was one of the first to see the video when it was unveiled at the UFO Magazine Conference back in 1995, but even today it still has a creepy realistic quality. I spotted at least several people looking away at some of the more graphic moments. During the footage, Phil pointed out numerous things, including how accurate the surroundings and medical techniques were.
After the footage was over, Phil’s presentation took on a more negative view towards its authenticity. He explained in detail how, after years of research, they had managed to track down the people who helped create the video, and even some of the actors! He backed up all his claims with photographic evidence, and I think by the end of it pretty much everyone had the view that the alien autopsy footage was an elaborate hoax. The latest bombshell to be dropped regarding the video is a contact of Phil’s named Spyros Melaris. He claims that he was the one responsible for the design of the alien body, and assisted in perpetuating the hoax. However he was cut out of the loop, and unlike the owners of the footage did not end up much better off because of it. He thinks it is now time to let the world know the truth regarding the video. But the owner of the footage, Ray Santilli, claims (perhaps understandably) that Spyros is making it all up. Phil has done a lot of research into his contact’s credentials and seems satisfied he is the real deal. I know whom I believe!
Overall Phil’s presentation was both very interesting and informative. I’m sure everyone attending had a great evening. He followed it up with a Q&A session that started quietly but soon erupted into a constant show of hands. Phil was quizzed on not only the alien autopsy video, but also numerous other UFO incidents and related topics. He answered all our questions really well; his professional knowledge of the subject could easily be seen.
Any BUFOG members wishing to attend the annual UFO Data Conference in October will have the chance to listen to and speak with him again. If you’re reading this Phil, thanks for a great lecture and see you in a couple of months!

2nd June 2008
The summer of 1976 experienced a spark that ignited the soul of a particular person. This person was Kevin Goodman and this man exposed Warminster to the world. Monday 2nd June 2008 was a very special moment for BUFOG and it's members, as for the first time ever in Kevin's 32 years of research into the phenomenon we were privileged to a lecture by the great man himself. We were very grateful to Kevin for allowing us this very special moment and what a night it was. I (Craig) met up with Kevin at lunch time on Monday so we could sit down and enjoy a conversation together before the members arrived. I was setting up the lecture room at the time and Kevin couldn't have picked a better time to arrive, I needed a hand.We spent over 2 hours trying get the laptop to work on the projector where we were showing some images provided by Kevin. I finally decided to drive home and pick up my PC as the laptop wasn't playing ball. 7.3pm and the doors opened, Kevin was looking a little nervous but I knew he would walk this lecture, this man has years of experience-this is his arena. The lecture started about 8.00pm and Kevin rolled straight into the lecture, in the first quarter of the lecture Kevin stumbled his words once. From my experience that is bloody good, to only stumble once in your first lecture, I knew from there on it would go from strength to strength and that's exactly what happened. Kevin started with reading a few witnesses reports and then followed by a half hour black and white documentary from the BBC which has only been aired once and even after much request has never been shown since. Considering this footage is over 30 years old and many of the warminster locals were interviewed, it was an amazing piece of history. It made a change to see such footage, peoples reactions and descriptions from the 60's and 70's instead of Internet video clips and digital images which dominate the subject in this current time. We then stopped for our raffle prize draw where the winner had a copy of Kevin's book UFO WARMINSTER personally signed by him.(images below, the winner is the man in the blue shorts) Kevin then carried on the 2nd half of the lecture with his own personal experiences in Warminster and how along with his friends their lives changed from that point onwards. Kevin has experienced an immense amount of activity in Warminster and around himself. The story we will keep to ourselves as we strongly urge you to purchase the book as this review could by no means do the book justice in such a short paragraph. Kevin's lecture brought passion and actually pulled you into the 1970's and you even felt you were actually there standing next to him on those hills at night, something not experienced very often at lectures. The lecture was definitely a walk down memory lane and broad casted in such sincerity. Kevin's experience had such an effect that most of the people who attended actually purchased a copy of the book.Kevin we would like to say from all at BUFOG that it was a pleasure to be in your presence and to be the first people in the world to hear your lecture, you did our group proud, Warminster proud and most of all yourself proud. If anybody is thinking of asking Kevin to do a lecture then we can promise you will not be disappointed. Kevin we thank you for this friendship we now have and can't wait for you to return to talk to us all again. HERE ARE THE IMAGES AND A FEW COMMENTS FROM MEMBERS AT THE LECTURE, you can also CLICK HERE to view the video footage on the podcasts page- 
Just got home, and BRIAN (member) thought i'd fire of my thoughts while fresh in the head This was Kevin's Debut lecture, and do you know what? it was just brilliant He came across well, and built the background to the main / second half of his lecture nicely. You could really see the personal passion coming from Kevin Goodman during the second half. The master-stroke was inviting two of his close friends that were with Kevin in the 70's and shared his experiences. If at all possible, his close friends Colin Rees & Philip Crowther should become part of the lecture! you really get immersed in the events, because you are dealing with part of the group of friends that actually lived it. I bought the book, got it signed by all three chaps.. who by the way were top, top blokes! Can't wait to read the Warminster - Cradle Of Contact Book now! especially after getting a feel for the people involved in writing the book itself! finally, Thank you to Craig & Mark for making it possible! - onwards and upwards Bufog! P.S. Kevin Goodman has invited bufog members to a Skywatch in Winchester at the end of August! i'm sure all the details are over at ufo-warminster.co.uk Andrew (member) Yeah I really enjoyed Kevin's lecture so thanks to Kevin, Craig & Mark (whenever they get to read this). It was nice to hear accounts of a UFO case from the personal viewpoint of someone involved. Didn't get the book, however my brother Dave/Sech did so.... After an undisclosed amount of time when I've got through the pile I've had amounting I can hopefully read up on this case some more I'm also looking forward to that skywatch. Never actually been to an "official" one, as such DAVID (member) I concur, that lecture was top notch! Nice work Kevin. It was interesting seeing the old documentary too, cracked me up hearing people talk in the typical BBC posh English accent again. I am well looking forward to the skywatch, whether we see anything or not it will be really interesting visiting Warminster and the site of numerous UFO encounters. It'll be good fun, I hope many of you BUFOG members can make it...

The first ever BUFOG meeting was held at the Amber Tavern Inn on Monday 3rd March 2008. This meeting was just a general meet and greet to all the future members and tot he public, we had a fantastic turn out and were pleasantly suprised with the feed back we received. The conversation was great, we wish we had time to talk to you all individually.
The next meeting will be held next door at the Midland Red Social Club as this venue has a selection of private rooms - look forward to seeing you there -
