PIC FROM CATERS NEWS – (Pictured the Vault) We might be be in financial woes but dont worry theres still a few pence in the bank, inside the vault of the Bank of England which holds £156 BILLION in GOLD. As bankers are dis-honoured and Europe teeters on the brink of financial meltdown its still nice to see we have a little to fall back on. Deep underground the nations financial heart these piles upon piles of 28lb 24-carat gold bars make for reassuring viewing. Stacked on shelves like some scene from the end of an Indian Jones film the glittering nest egg is kept safe in a massive underground vault. In this image alone there are around around 15,000 bars around 210 tonnes of pure gold, with a value of around £3 billion. SEE CATERS COPY.
