Smoke gets in (your) eyes.....

Wide-eyed was all excited yesterday. They had a fire drill and he told me cans (of coal or charcoal - not quite sure which) were planted outside their classroom and then were set alight, generating a lot of smoke. He had to cover his mouth with a piece of cloth (this was provided) and run out to the field. He said some of the smoke got into his eyes and then when they were in the field, the building really looked like it was on fire - "A lot a lot a lot of smoke!"

... I'm so jealous! His fire drill is like a civil defence exercise! So fun!!
