I have an Anderson shelter buried under the rockery in the back garden!

Only $30,000 to anyone who want's to come and dig it up...... cash in advance please :-)

lucky you!! last one i saw was 20 years ago and had "Concrete cancer"...only had to breathe on it and it fell over!

Our old house on teesside had a bomb shelter built onto the back of it, 18 inch thick concrete walls and roof, made a helluva kennel for the two dogs.

I saw this yesterday in an American new site. Showed the girlfriend. She said that sort of thing worries her. I said that if I got one she could just think of it as a man cave and not worry. It's the kind of crap I'd doubtless own if I had the money and lived in the states.

if i lived in the states or Canada i would have a cabin in the woods!

If i had the coinage i would go and buy myself an old Victorian or Edwardian home out in the countryside that had its own cellar, wine cellar, coalhole and well. i would re-enforce and conceal the cellar and make that my retreat.

Thank Christ it has a flat screen TV. For a minute there I thought I'd might have to start reading a book after TSHTF.

My one's the original corrugated steel type with concrete poured over it for good measure.

I found the original design plans but this post will not let me attach anything to it. I'll try a separate reply.

Has there been any discussion on building a modern day shelter?

the people selling those shelters will give, yes GIVE you 10 acres for free with your purchase!
