Oil Spill In Wales

Noah talks to Belgrave Hotel receptionist Rosiland (ROSE-ah-lend) Buttner in the Waelsh seaside resort town of Temby about the effcts of the February 15 oil spill on the beaches there. She says it took four to five days after the spill for changing winds to push the slick to Temby. But now clean-up crews have done a splendid job of tidying things up. The spill is being called the biggest in British history.
