Star like light in sky changing directions and speeds frequently

My partner went outside to urinate just before 10pm and noticed a strange light moving in the sky. He quickly noticed it was much quicker than a nearby plane and without other lights. He knocked for me to join him and I also observed the light, like a star, raise rapidly in the sky, quickly change directions and move in ways unlike a meteor, star, plane or space station.

Initially the light moved rapidly vertically, then stopped still and occasionally moved seemingly erratically, sometimes back and forwards, sometimes in circles.

We live near an international airport and frequent planes took off nearby and came in to land. The light sat just above this low level of planes coming to land.

We watched it for about 30 minutes. After the initial rapid movement there was not much movement, it would be stationary for a while but occasionally would drop, raise or make jerky movements.

The cloud came in but when we look and its clearer it's still there.
