... from the annual advent calendar draw of the camping related message board that I have participated since 2009!

A very well-insulated and expensive coolbox that could keep food chilled/frozen for a very long time without the need to hook up to electricity supply!

It can stay in my van in the passenger footwell as the dog will not sleep in his bed in that space.

It will keep the delicate salad leaves and other salad stuff chilled on hot days without being frozen in the fridge - in order to keep the ice cream frozen in the freezer compartment during hot days, I need to whack down the temperature and end up with frozen salad stuff with high water content.

Or I could keep the beers and ciders chilled and free up space in the fridge.

Congrats! :D I once won a giant (like, human-sized) Hershey's bar at the annual Harvest Fair when I was a kid. I thought, this is so lucky... and I'm only 8! Surely even bigger and better prizes await me!! I never won anything ever again.
 
Great news -- and wonderful prize -- enjoy!
 
That is great - congrats!!
 
HI:

Awesome!!

cheers--Sharon
 
So cool! (Literally)
 
Sweet! I love winning things...
And it's perfect for you too!
Enjoy!
 
how long till camping weather ?

I am set to go on 28 December for a few nights depending on the weather.

If it is bright, dry with light winds, I shall go.

However, if it is windy and wet then no, as it is no fun for me and the dog.

I can cope with being cold, however, not cold, wet and windy!

Otherwise, the first trip out in the van will be over the Easter weekend in April 2023.
