Has anyone got any experience of transporting frozen BM in a cool box with ice packs? I'm wondering how long it will last before it starts to defrost?

Thanks

I have done this while driving from London to Manchester, it was still pretty much frozen when we got there (about 5 hours).

Thanks, did you use it when you arrived or refreeze it?

I used it - I don't think you could refreeze it and I think you have to use within 12 hours once defrosted.

I've had mine in the car for 4 hours in a bag and it was fine. I think it was helped by DD's little frozen meals and some frozen BBQ meat being in there too. I think the more frozen stuff you cram in the bag the cooler it stays.
