got a solid box as the soft bag type can get squashed. 4 ice blocks in for traveling and the first day, any longer and i usually have a trip to the local shopping centre and buy bags of ice ( pre frozen ) that lasts another day or two depending on the weather

aslong as it`s a good quality box you shouldnt have a problem, but check the seal on the lid before purchase - our first one had a warped lid

it`s only Meee

Hi,

I've seen a Coleman Coolbox in our local camping shop which will keep things cold for 3 days. Had a look at their website but its not listed. I'm sure I'll be up there again soon so I'll get the details. I think it cost about £29.95

Igloo for me, we've had ours 11years now, it was touching 40C this year and it still kept things cool.

Freeze your milk (apart from one pint to use when you get there), and freeze anything else you won't need straight away. Fill a 2 ltr coke bottle with water to about 2" from the top and freeze that (a bottle of frozen water will stay frozen much longer than freezer blocks).

Add all the frozen stuff to the cool box just before you leave home, and it'll stay fresh for 3-4 days

Go for a good quality Coleman or Thermos coolbox, we've got one of each and they're both fantastic (and were free out of the skip at work  )
