   OIL KEEP LEAKING FROM WRECK

   Oil have, during Easter, kept on leaking from the shipwreck, formerly the freighter «Erika», sinking outside France in December last year. The first strike of oil reached the beaches of Brittany shortly afterwards. Recently it has been renewing its «attack». Tourist authorities in Brittany are heavily despairing, having used considerable amount of time and resources on an international campaign to convince foreigners that the beaches were indeed free of oil, after the winter’s environmental disaster.
   It’s estimated there are still 150000 tons of oil left in the wreck.
