Jamie Oliver finds treasure trove whilst building new restaurant!
BRITISH TV chef Jamie Oliver struck gold creating his latest restaurant - when builders discovered treasure worth £1.1 million ($1.7 million) hidden in the basement.

Hundreds of safety deposit boxes dating back to 1935 were found at an old bank that the celebrity chef converted in Manchester, northwestern England.

He's probably saying ..."Brilliant...fucking brilliant!". He might get half of that after taxes.

I don't think he's getting any of it. The article says the Bank of England has sent the haul to the treasury department. I'm not sure how British law works; if he owns the building he may eventually have some claim if the owners can't be traced, but if he's leasing the building I would imagine that the building's owner gets it.

Ya you got a point. I think if he owned the land...he might have a case. But...I'm sure there's a loop hole..."Sorry Jamie...YOINK!"
