Photos OK to edit
It's all to do with sheds(underground bunkers). See most hide in sheds or bunkers, most might fill them with food and stocks and hide and those in the USA (I'm reliably informed) fill them with guns and ammo.


In the UK we build thermite launchers and rocket powered bicycles.

I do know some "preppers" as they call themselves, but most of the underground shelters around here are used as tornado shelters.

Just to clarify, they're not to shelter tornados, that's just the way Iowans talk.
 
Y'all Brits talk an' spell funny - colour, valour, lorry, pram, an' ma favrit - "al-loo-min-ee-um"
;)

Heck here in Kansas we just call it a root cellar.
 
You forgot one thing Over, perhaps the biggest, most significant difference: Brown sauce!
Sorry, but I like brown sauce. Guess it is one of those things from living in Europe for a couple of years.
 
Speaking as a Northern Brit (Scottish) we do have some stand out features.
Keep Calm - it is what we do in almost any circumstance
Question everything - especially bureaucracy
Change political allegiance - as we have so many political parties to choose from
Love talking about politics, religion and global topics - at the moment Trump and tax dodging
If anyone wants to add to the list.......

And in NY, we have no time for the descriptors, so we just say cellar. Well, unless it's a wine cellar ;) And most of us just have boxes full of crap, random buckets of paint, Cristmas decorations, and a mouse or two in our cellars. No room for an aresenal!

Remember depending on where you are in New York Cellar has different meanings. In the New York City area cellar is where you bury the bodies.

Who buries bodies? That's what the East River is for. Yeesh.
 
All depends on the reason for the hit. There are some people that just "disappear" mostly those who are quasi legitimate.

The east river is for the average run of the mill La Cosa Rostra member and associates.
