glowing object of great speed with alternating directional movements in the night sky

whilst waiting on a bus and having a smoke, i looked up or rather across to the sky maybe about a thirty degree angle upwards to see an unusually bright (what i thought was a) star. i then thought to myself the object was gaining height in the sky thinking it was just my imagination or perhaps due to unseen cloud movements i lined the object up with a tree in the distance only to notice it was slightly higher after a few seconds maybe 10 - 20 seconds. on following the object in the night sky it then gave off a kind of dull flash and disapeared, although i thought it had completely disapeared approx. 20 seconds later it reappeared quite a bit higher in the sky and seemed to be glowing a kind of green/purple alternate. the object continued to gain height in the sky before stopping dead for a few seconds and then moving slightly to the left. the object then stopped again before shooting off at a tremendous speed to the right on an upward course before disapearing after a few seconds. i thought long and hard as to what this object could have been my first thought being some kind of military aircraft, but the objects movements convinced me against this theory and to this day i am completely undecided as to what it could have been. and the other thing i forgot to mention there were two aircraft in the sky around the same time one going left in my field of vision the other going right. seeing the speed of these crafts in the sky furthered my belief the thing i saw was no plane.
