New use for old equipment
 

I've had a plastic milkcrate for years. In the current weather it has
come into its own. When the 5in raingauge is full of snow, I take it and
its winebottle into the house to melt. Holding it upright without it
tipping over and breaking the bottle is a problem without the milkcrate.
It just sits on the AGA, and the snow melts in minutes.

Job done!
