Orange Balls of fire flying through the sky In Drumcondra...who saw them?

Ruthie-Roux

I`ve just come back from Tescos and whilst walking up through Drumcondra I spotted two large orange balls of fire "flying" through the night sky.
They were lower down than a plane but not by much. They were large enough that I could see their glowing orange colour.
My first thought was chinese lanterns but they were definatly flying in a fast steady course rather than floating and were far too high and big anyway.
I then thought they may have been meteors but they were not fast enough really. They were moving with about the same speed as a plane, one foloowed a few mins behind the other.

Anyone else see these?
Any idea what they were?

saw something like this the other night but didn't bother posting because i'd be told they were chinese lanterns.


they light was hovering above clouds,i don't know if chinese lanterns can go that high but if they can they're worth the money.
