Huge Commonwealth Games cock-up leads to condoms blocking drains


The troubled Commonwealth Games in Delhi have been hit by a new problem: thousands of condoms blocking drains at the £150m athletes' village.Games organisers have said they will work round the clock to clear the prophylactics from pipes at the accommodation blocks housing more than 7,000 athletes and officials.Mike Fennell, president of the Commonwealth Games Federation, sought to put a positive spin on the story at a news conference, saying: "If that is happening, it shows that there is use of condoms and I think that is a very positive story. Athletes are being responsible.""If they are so active then that's very good," a spokesperson for the organisers said. "We are promoting safe sex."One official told the local Mail Today newspaper, which broke the story, that more than 4,000 condoms had already been taken from free vending machines since athletes started arriving 10 days ago.The condom blockage follows an outbreak of gastrocolic problems such as diarrhoea among swimmers this week.  Source:Guardian.co.uk
