Hilary Porter of B.E.A.M.S. recently posted on Facebook a photograph taken in Ramsgate England on 19th Jul 2012 The image was taken during the Olympic torch relay at Ramsgate on the morning of July 19, 2012 and this photo was snapped by a local resident.
Here is the photo in question. 


This is the information that was presented regarding his image…..
“The UFO (near top right in pic), was not seen at the time, and only later noticed when transferring her images to a PC. Note how the mystery object is in the background and the tree is in the foreground – thus discounting the falling leaf theory…Some people have even tried to suggest that this is simply the top of a streetlight; but look at the inset on image below where I have enlarged the object… (they don’t even have that shape of ‘lamp’ in this part of the town anyway; rather they use the more decorative conical style, as can be seen in the foreground), so that idea also falls by the wayside… and this is certainly not a bird; what else could it be? dirt on the lens?… now we are getting truly desperate for an explanation!”
Everything points to this picture being unprocessed, (e.g. not the product of ‘Photoshop’ or an similar image editing tool/app), so this looks to be yet another perfectly legitimate, accidental capture of a UFO!”

A spades a spade.
Immediately i knew what it was. It was a streetlight.
Knowing that B.E.A.M.S investigators were qoute: “…truly desperate for an explanation!”
I thought id investigate this matter a bit more for myself and see if i could prove my own conclusion.
So off to Ramsgate i went. Via Google maps/street view. Upon arriving and taking a short stroll down the streets of Ramsgate, i quickly ascertained that my initial labeling of the UFO as a streetlamp was indeed 100% spot on the money.
I then took some screen savers and created a similar image for comparison and in addition, provided a 100% match to the object seen on the image that B.E.A.M.S. were so desperate to identify.
So i posted the results of my findings to Hilary Porter and then quickly found that i had been blocked. I then posted my findings on the B.E.A.M.S Facebook page and was also expelled from the group.
I am truly shocked at this level of behaviour from a UFO group QUOTE: “…truly desperate for an explanation!”
http://www.beamsinvestigations.org/Mystery%20UFO%20Photo%20-%20Ramsgate,%20Kent,%20UK.html
No dialogue was exchanged, no thanks was given. I was simply blocked by B.E.A.M.S investigator Hilary Porter for solving the Ramsgate UFO Mystery. And then kicked out their group.
I am truly disappointed in the behaviour of B.E.A.M.S and the way they conduct themselves. It’s a sad day for Ufology indeed.
Below: the matching streetlights i found within seconds of using Google Maps Street view in Ramsgate. UFO/Streetlight top right.

“…You were blocked because I am sick of idiots who think that know everything – when clearly they know jack-all and are just a pain.
Look, they don’t even have that type of streetlight in this part of Ramsgate town – they use the attractive, conical lamps (note the red circle), – not ugly overhanging streetlamps as you’re suggesting… we have done our homework…” Hilary Porter

Mystery Solved. No Thanks from B.E.A.M.S ….Just blocked. For solving their case. Sad days eh? Not the sort of behaviour i’d expect from a UFO group. Ever.

Hilary Porter yesterday:
I have just removed the Ramsgate case from our FB page, (it was causing too many arguements), but the report remains on our main BEAMS (archives section) – because that was no streetlight – they don’t even use that style of lamp in that part of Ramsgate, (see red circle), but rather the more decorative, conical style, but anyway… here’s another case from the archives with a very similar shape of object that was captured: read report here:http://www.beamsinvestigations.org/UFO%20Over%20Audenshaw,%…
Now, is this a streetlight? GGMS… no wonder I have deactivated our FB page more times than I care to remember… out of sheer frustration!

Ok then Hilary, please have a look at the images below. Check Mate. Your argument is invalid.


Update on investigation.
————————————
Less than 24hrs after first labeling the alleged UFO on the B.E.A.M.S facebook post as nothing but a streetlight, ive been able to provide enough evidence that supports my summary. So in return i was blocked by Hilary Porter and expelled from the B.E.A.M.S. Facebook page.
For telling it like it is. A spades a spade. Sure it would be great to open our imaginations and wish and want and hope to believe that its E.T. but its only a streetlight.
I wasnt happy about being excommunicated for shedding light on this mystery and thanks to one of my the top tech assistants in my team, i was provided with the final nail in the coffin for Hilary Porter and B.E.A.M.S with regards to this matter.
I was also disgusted to see that another non related image was also inserted alongside the original image as this was misleading. So Hilary Porter and B.E.A.M.S the question i have to ask is……Are you proud to operate in this way? blocking people who expose you to the truth? It would seem that you cant handle the truth and i am tickled that i was able to shed light on this.
Do you think the papers would have fun with a UFO group that could not accept the truth?
Its a streetlight Hilary. Deal with it.



B.E.A.M.S. RAMSGATE UFO MYSTERY SOLVED.
The Icing on the cake
New and ongoing developments regarding this case.
I was informed by Hilary Porter on Facebook that
QUOTE:

Look, they don’t even have that type of streetlight in this part of Ramsgate town – they use the attractive, conical lamps (note the red circle), – not ugly overhanging streetlamps as you’re suggesting… we have done our homework.
We have numerous ufos of this type on our site – well away from any possible, imaginary ‘posst’ and ‘poles; – many in the middle of nowhere, clear, crisp objects shaped just like the Ramsgate example…
It is people like you who are ruining this subject – you simply can’t accept the fact that some things in this life simply cannot be explained in rational terms; streetlamp my eye… for heavens sake, don’t you think that we considered that it was a streetlamp – we have been UFO investigators and experiencers since 1991 … so please do not insult our intelligence.
THAT’S WHY YOU BLOCKED AND REMOVED… MR ‘CASE SOLVED’…. NOT!
————-
So now ive been informed its people like me that know jack shit, don’t do my homework ….don’t know the area, that i have not been a UFO investigator since 1991 and that im ruining the subject and insulting the intelligence of the B.E.A.M.S team.
WOW!
But there’s more, check out the new low that B.E.A.M.S. investigator Hilary Porter has now sunk to…

Well Hilary, cyberbullying, an even wilder claim than your Ramsgate UFO.
It was a nice of you to explain the reasons why i was blocked.
Now eat humble pie and enjoy the bottom line. You were proven wrong and in the process you insulted and shamed you and your group in the process.
The truth hurts eh?
here it is again. case you never seen it.
Yours truly,
Mr Case Closed.

Now B.E.A.M.S are involved in a UFO cover up. Disgraceful !

One Mistake And We Get All This!
James Francis Welsh has now been reported to Facebook for Cyberbullying and we are soon shutting our page down permanently after being the subject of his most unpleasant behaviour;
So ok, we make one mistake about the wretched Ramsgate photo, (were only human), and then we quickly retracted our thoughts on the case when fresh data was presented… but then Mr Welsh twisted our error and even began taking our words out of context, (if you read that piece again about being “truly desperate for an explanation!” you will see that is our puny attempt at sarcasm… as in running out of ideas about what the object could have been …in a process of elimination… yes, yes we know it’s just a street lamp now but didn’t at the time… obviously), but then he became nasty about it all and a real pest on our FB page, putting up all sorts of unwanted posts, (with him quoting, misquoting and always linking back to our mistake), constantly attacking BEAMS so we blocked him…
Then while still in a sulk, he starts blackmailing us via our Hotmail account that he’s “going to enjoy serial posting” of our mistake in an attempt to discredit BEAMS.
Yes we got angry after being on the receiving end of his venom and perhaps said a few things that we shouldn’t have in the heat of the moment… but what else were we supposed to do – just sit back and take his insults?
In our opinion this ‘man’ is out for trouble full stop!
And with people like this waiting in the wings we finally realise, once and for all what a load of garbage Facebook really is… just like the school playground, full of tittle-tattle, with the perfect PREFECTS just itching to grass people up to teacher…
P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C! …get a real life!
Oh and BTW James, saw the bad book review on Amazon, is that perhaps the REAL reason why you’re so full of spite and anger?
To quote this customer “What a waste of money not much of a story at all just a personal diary of a story of a story, boring been quicker going on Youtube which this book constantly refers you to and god knows how many other sites – one word crap.” (punctuation corrected).

Hilary, you posted the case. I offered my explanation. I was then attacked and blocked after providing the information that disproved your claims. I was in addition kicked out the B.E.A.M.S group for solving this case. Obviously unhappy with the way in which you treat people, i took it upon myself to find the exact spot on the photo in your post.
I dont see how taking a direct quote from the page can be interpreted as taking your words out of context, (if you read that piece again about being “truly desperate for an explanation!” you will see that you have deleted the page so that no one can see the words that you wrote and i never took out of context. Anyway unfortunately for you that direct quote also appears on the image on my blog. So no joy.
Also i dont see how the word streetlight can be seen to be venom and yes you did go on the verbal attack and accuse me of several things. Anyway, while we’re on the subject of quotes, here’s one:
its on the image on this blog, taken from your page. it reads : quote: “Some people have even tried to suggest that this is simply the top of a streetlight: but look at the inset below where i have enlarged the object…they dont even have that shape of ‘lamp’ in this part of town anyway;rather they use the more decorative conical style, as can be seen in the foreground) so that idea also falls by the wayside…and this is certainly not a bird! What else could it be? Dirt on the lens? …Now we are getting truly desperate for an explanation! ”
-Source: B.E.A.M.S. post….see above.
So i don’t know what exactly i took out of proportion or how i misquoted you? Again, the evidence is there.
while we’re on the subject of quotes, I’d also like to draw your attention to this one by yourself….
” You were blocked because I am sick of idiots who think that know everything – when clearly they know jack-all and are just a pain. Look, they don’t even have that type of streetlight in this part of Ramsgate town – they use the attractive, conical lamps (note the red circle), – not ugly overhanging streetlamps as you’re suggesting… we have done our homework. We have numerous ufos of this type on our site – well away from any possible, imaginary ‘posst’ and ‘poles; – many in the middle of nowhere, clear, crisp objects shaped just like the Ramsgate example…

THAT’S WHY YOU BLOCKED AND REMOVED… MR ‘CASE SOLVED’…. NOT!”
So lets get this right….i was blocked being an idiot who thinks that know everything – when clearly i know jack-all and am just a pain.
Ok , well but I solved your case 3 years down the line. Lets move on to the next part of your verbal tirade….” …Look, they don’t even have that type of streetlight in this part of Ramsgate town – they use the attractive, conical lamps (note the red circle), – not ugly overhanging streetlamps as you’re suggesting… we have done our homework…”
Ok well I proved that part wrong and demonstrated that they do indeed have both types of poles in Ramsgate. In doing so I guess I also proved you obviously DIDNT do your homework.
Also i quote you again “…It is people like you who are ruining this subject…”
How so?
And this bits good too, “…we have been UFO investigators and experiencers since 1991 … so please do not insult our intelligence…”
I had no intention to do so. I simply decided to put my money where my mouth was and prove my conclusions- thus in turn helping solve the case. (side effect)
And now the last part: “…THAT’S WHY YOU BLOCKED AND REMOVED… MR ‘CASE SOLVED’…. NOT!”
So in the end i seems that i did indeed have the knowledge to solve the case-proved you were wrong about the two kinds of streetlight, didnt ruin the subject, or set out to insult anyone, found the exact location where the photo was taken and solved a 3 year old case.
After i presented you with my findings i was blocked. I then messaged you saying- wow blocked for offering my assistance- well you knew i was right and that’s why you blocked me. So i had no choice but to report the treatment i received from a UFO group for trying to help out. Ufology is all about getting to the roots of the truth isn’t it? Well when you blocked me for presenting you with it, obviously i was going to let people know that a UFO group was not open to finding out the truth and verbally attacks anyone who comes forward with it. That was disgusting behaviour from a UFO group and you should be ashamed for acting in this way.
Also i have not insulted you once.
You did that to yourself.
BY THE WAY, WHATS THIS ALL ABOUT?
“…Then while still in a sulk, he starts blackmailing us via our Hotmail account that he’s “going to enjoy serial posting” of our mistake in an attempt to discredit BEAMS.”
If you read this blog, you will see that Hilary Porter is a keen fiction writer as it was Facebook on which i sent the message. ( I didn’t demand cash though)
So I’m accused now of cyber bullying and blackmail.
All I did was let you know personally in a fb message that I was going to enjoy serial posting my blog about how B.E.A.M.S. investigator Hilary Porter treated me and my evidence. The abuse that I took (all documented)
You paint a horrible picture of me. Cyber terrorist. Pretty much.
Not so. Hope you kept a note of all the bullying I allegedly did cause it like to see it.
Hilary please do yourself a favour. Don’t go opening your mouth.
