storing GFP expressing cells

Hi all, 

I think of storing some transfected cells (293 fibroblasts) expressin 
GFP as a reporter for some days at -20 degC.
Spontaneously, I'd resuspend them in say 20% glycerol / PBS to 
prevent the formation of ice crystals.
Later, I would dilute the solution and analyze the cells with a 
FACS.
Does this sound reasonable?
Any better suggestions are higly welcome!

Wolfgang
