Indeed, and Robert's your father's brother. Or sister, seeing as how this has rather bizarrely turned into the gender-bending thread.

Great idea though, especially hearing lots of people wishing they had imported caravans or anyone wanting somewhere temporary whilst building their own. They would be 1000% improvement to some of the 'sleep-out' arrangements people have here. I wouldn't think twice about slinging one in a container if I had my chance again.

I had a look on Argos website, but it's all mucked up, and none of the details will show up as to how big they are.
