Commonwealth Games: Bob strikes again.

[Mich the Tester]

Arent we all forgetting that Bob Shawadiwadi does it for much cheapness and plenty quickness?

There won't be plenty quickness on a running track like that.

Much trippiness.

Sounds like they have seriously under-delivered on the Baksheesh budget!

Ah!

[Zippy]

It is not specified that running track must be flat! This is change request, not finding!

Don't be so mean! I thought the 100 metres steeplechase heats went very well.

Yep, excellent times only about half a second off the world's best, which is actually quite a lot in sprinting.

I have the scars to show what happens when you run the 100m wearing spikes on an uneven track.

On your marks. Get squat. Go!

Just hope it's 'Delhi belly' and not some intestinal parasite. Delhi belly usually goes away quickly, some of the nasty intestinal parasites can ruin an athlete's career.

As I said, I wouldn't compete there having experienced dyssentry and what it did to me.

Anyway, the Indians are second in the medals table right now, probably on the strength of their immune systems because nobody's going very fast in the pool or on the track.

It's actually a bloody disgrace that a city organising the Commonwealth Games is still unable to provide the basic hygiene that prevents thee illnesses. You know what is the primary cause of food poisoning in India? Cooks having a tulip, wiping their arse with their bare hands, dipping their hand in filthy water and then preparing food.

The games shouldn't be held there.

Turns out Bob contracted Vlad the Impaler's family business to provide car park security;

The spikes, about a metre long, are embedded right across the road surface and suddenly sprung up when the car was deemed to be an illegal entry despite having cleared the first checkpoint

The chef de mission, Wilson Tumwine, as well as Juliet Achom and Irene Matovu, spent the night in a hospital.

Matovu had severe injuries to her eye and required extensive facial stitching. Tumwine suffered a slight head injury and Acom had whiplash.

Bloody lucky.

Its all a ploy to ensure Bob ends up with the most medals.
