WWll bomb clears red light area

Brothels along Hamburg's famous Reeperbahn had to be evacuated when construction workers dug up a 277 pound WWII bomb.

Hundreds of prostitutes and their clients were forced to leave the area which was cordoned off by German police after a digger driver unearthed the explosive during construction work.

One disappointed client reportedly asked police: "Can you not just wait a couple of minutes?"

Business was unable to resume as normal for seven hours until explosive experts had been able to make the weapon safe.

The key thing in this story is that the weapon was made safe.

Countries are doing what they can about safe sex.....could 'safe war' be next???
