The hunt for a missing cow has made front page news in Germany.
August is the month when politicians, businessmen and journalists traditionally down tools and head to the beach, leaving worried editors with reams of blank pages to fill.
In Germany they are doing that with news of Yvonne, a cow that went AWOL from her farm in deepest Bavaria in May.
But when German tabloid Bild published a front page plea for her safe return, it was a sign that the so-called silly season is well and truly upon us.
