The Sunday Herald is always good for interesting news from around the world. This was in the edition of the 2 April (I'm a week behind with my Sunday papers):

From the "Berliner Kurier"
German nuclear power station officials have admitted to losing the keys to top security areas within their plant. The Philippsburg nuclear plant in Germany is now under investigation after owners reported that they have been searching for the keys to vital areas around the reactors since March 10. The plant is run by German company EnBW, which reportedly took an entire week to inform the authorities about the loss of the keys.

Are you certain it's the 2nd of April?

That's hilarious in a rather worrying sort of way.
