Missing plutonium and uranium

Today it was announced that British Nuclear Group (BNG) have realised that they have missing 29.6kg of plutonium and 16.4kg of naturally-depleted uranium. They are saying this is an audit/accounting issue. Well given that 29.6kg of pluntonium can make 7 nuclear bombs, that is a big audit issue. So in the interest of keeping the world safe, can everyone please look behind their sofas, down the back of chairs, in their garages, outhouses, etc and see if we can help BNG find this missing material, cause we certainly wouldn't want to have mislaid such an important material.

Lets hope that it isn't in North Korea or Iran or anywhere else that wouldn't mind this material.........
