    But if they said they could manage it & then found they couldn't, why weren't they moved somewhere more suitable then.

    They obviously didn't want to move, it says she wanted a ramp put in.

    They shouldn't have had a choice, why should they get a 40k ramp when moving down the road would have been the answer.

    Well if it was a ramp she wanted, she certainly got one!

    Stupid waste of money though.
