At around 6am this morning my baby who is just under 6 weeks old woke up for a feed. I had my bedroom window open slightly and I could hear a lot of noise from outside. Once I had finished feeding, I went to my balcony and could see many people outside of their homes and could see huge flames from the UCC Coffee Factory which is just opposite my block of flats. There was around 5 fire engines on the scene at the time and police. The houses opposite the factory were evacuated. Flames were high and very thick black smoke was filling the air. There was the sounds of small explosions from inside the factory. We had a knock on our door at around 6:50am from the police asking us to evacuate. As we left the fire was still going but firemen seemed to have it under control, firemen on a crane trying to extinguish the flames.
