"Старая дама"- название финансового учреждения ( Английский банк ). Большие без окон стены окружают ее резиденцию. В розовых фраках стоят привратники. За посетителями постоянно ведется наблюдение при камер. Почему банк так интересно назвали? Улица Треднидл находится в районе Лондона. Одна из гильдий занималась производством иголок, и на ее гербе изображались три иглы. Возможно, поэтому улица получила такое название.Спустя 100 лет один политик, выступая в Парламенте, назвал этот банк " старой дамой в городе с хорошей репутацией и давней историей". А один карикатурист подхватил идею такого сравнения, и с тех пор банк шутя называют "Старой дамой с Треднидл-Стрит". " The old lady" - the name of the financial institution ( Bank of England ). Large windowless walls surround her residence. In pink evening dress are the gatekeepers. For visitors constantly monitored by cameras. Why bank called so interesting. Threadneedle Street is located in the center of London. one of guilds engaged in the production of needles, and on its coat of arms depicted three needles. Perhaps that is why street got its name. One hundred years leater a politician, speaking in Parliament, called the bank " the old lady in the city with a good reputation and a long history." And one cartoonist picked up the idea of such a comparison, and since then the Bank jokingly called "the old lady of Threadneedle Street".
