What's a small bed, like a camp bed called over there?  Portable but not like a rollaway.  They'd be more like a sleeper berth on the train only a bed that comes away fromt he wall.  We call them cots here, but I think you call cribs cots there.

Thanks.

I don't know if this will help, but here's a site of British slang and stuff. I'm not sure if it has what you need, but mayhap it will help in the future?

*slight detour from sunny Wales where I am on holiday to the internet cafe*

It's a camp bed. There are some called Z beds, (prounounced ZED to rhymme with bed), however even Z beds get called camp beds.
