Containers galore

The beaches of Devon are littered with debris from the Italian container ship MSC Napoli was grounded about a mile offshore last week. They are also crowded with modern day scavengers hoping to land a small fortune in booty. They may be disappointed as the goods will probably remain the property of the original owner and in any case they have to contact the police with the details of anything they remove. As is to be expected in this day and age items from the Napoli have already appeared on EBay.
