    If you want to try it try this Freeze to blocks of ice in plastic mugs Put one on the drip tray rack over the sink and leave the other in the cup. You should find that the one on the rack will still be a smaller chunk of ice well after the other has thawed into water in the cup. Younger brother used to get a week or more on stewart island with big blocks of ice that were drained....
    Chilly bin has drainage plugs, so nothing to lose by tipping off the snow melt. Thanks.
