Located approximately six miles from the coast of Suffolk, southeast England. It is situated on the top of large concrete pillars in the middle of the North sea. Most of you might not have even heard of them.
It is almost impossible to reach this place. It is a hyper-secure data fortress. Almost nobody, except those who work there, know exactly what kind of information they protect. The most surprising thing is, it ended all its operations in 2008, without even giving an explanation.
2. The Bank of England Gold Vault.
The vault is hidden deep inside the streets of London. It is one of the World’s largest stores of gold ever. The vault contains over 4 million tons of gold and as you would guess.
1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they don’t pick up your call, presume they have something important to attend to.
2. Return money that you have borrowed even before the person you borrowed remembers or ask for it. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes etc.
3. Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is giving you a lunch/dinner.

This painting of a young woman breastfeeding an old man in a prison cell was sold for Euros 30 million. The painting may look perverse but the story behind is amazing. #Thread
The poor man was sentenced to "death by starvation" for stealing a loaf of bread during the reign of King Louis XIV in France. The woman was his only daughter and the only visitor allowed to visit him in his cell. She was searched thoroughly such that no food was taken in.
When after 4 months the man still survived with no weight loss, the authorities were perplexed and started spying on her in the cell and to their utter astonishment found her to breastfeed her father to the fullest sharing her baby's milk.
