What is the standard color for tarps in the U.K.? Over here it's a sort of bright blue, though they do come in other colors like silver or green.
Oh, and maybe you call them something else. Here a tarp, short for tarpaulin, is a waterproof sheet of canvas or heavy duty plastic that you throw over things to keep the rain off. Like if you were hauling stuff in a truck or you wanted something to cover the woodpile.
