MYSTERY FISH



FROM YOUTUBE: two week holiday at the Baron Palms Hotel in Sharm El Sheihk, June 2010 trying out my new camera PENTAX WS80. Mostly taken on the reef just outside the hotel, others were taken whilst on a trip to Tiran Island.I would like to know the name of the mystery spotted fish with the long feathery tail, it is not on any of my ID sheets.

CFZ ARCHIVING PROJECT: Forteana Part 15

As you know, Oll has been working on the archiving project since early February 2009 and he is now working on a general mish-mash of a section known as `General Forteana`. This fifteench collection once again really is a general mishmash of completely uncategoriseable stuff, including the laziest dentist, a fat bloke proving how gigantothermy works, exploding breast implants causing a car crash, big cats in Cyprus, and a heartywarming story of how two southern right whales vandalised a shark net in order to free their calf.. It doesn't get much better than this. Good stuff.

MARY EVANS R.I.P

Mary Evans founded the `Mary Evans Picture Library` in 1964 together with her husband Hilary, a noted fortean. It was one of the most important picture libraries in the UK.


Sadly Mary Evans died on the morning of 29 June. She had been suffering from Alzheimer's for the last four years, and died peacefully in her sleep. Further details of Mary's life can be found here.

LIZ CLANCY: Ugandan Angel

While proofing the forthcoming The Inhumanoids! by B. M. Nunnelly for CFZ Press, I came across the following account.

'Another aerial Inhumanoid, this time of a different type, was seen in Uganda between Kinyara and Kitanosie, in 1995. The ‘Red Angel’ was described as a human-looking winged entity with curly blond hair. The ‘angel’ was immersed in a glowing halo effect with a shimmering face and stood an incredible twelve feet tall. It reportedly faced the witness twice (?) before gliding away.'

Watch out for this book's imminent publication, announced on these hallowed pages....
