FIREFIGHTERS were called to a city nightclub following reports of smoke drifting out of the building.

But regulars at Play nightclub on Blueschool Street should not be alarmed as an inspection of the club revealed the smoke was artificial and coming from a synthetic generator that had been left on accidentally.

No revellers were inconvienced though as the fire' was spotted at around 4.30am last Friday.

No damage was caused and the nightclub was open for business the next evening.
