New Year's Eve Lights in the Sky

I live in Rhosneigr and was spending the New Year's Eve evening with friends nearby.

Walking there just after 7.30 I met two friends also walking there. They pointed out two lights in the sky, just like stars but definitely orange, which they had been trying to work out what they were.

As we watched the two lights came together, and then remained as one - stationary. We walked on and before going indoors stood watching then it vanished.

As I walked home approx 10.30, (having had a glass of wine) I saw a similar light moving steadily from the north/northwest towards the south. Then it vanished.

It did occur to me it might be someone using up a flare, but that would not explain the first two.

It never occurred to me to take a picture.
