OK Ant eater - so I would need about 4 of them (why that size?)

Where do I get them from?

Most are built in Hull.
That size cos its the industry standard and as large as can be transported on wagon!

I am trying to open a nursery (maybe) - but portacabins are so high of the ground it makes outdoor access really hard for under 3's

Why do the portacabins have to be so high, I have been in loads of temporary ones that are quite low. I take it the more permanant ones have to be set higher due to the construction.

What about long wide ramps from the doors you will probably need this for disabled access anyway.

How the hell can a ramp cost 3k, get a local joiner to do them for you. In fact I will send my FIL , he is a joiner for the NHS.

It is apparently to do with insurance and british standards (ffs & I don't swear often)

What if it's a permanent concretey sort of ramp?
