The bigger the volume, the longer it will take to freeze over. I use a 25l plastic container/drum laying on it's side, with one side cut off. If it's lightly frozen, just kick the side to break the ice. If it's heavily frozen you can just smash the top with a spade or whatevers to hand.
Hopefully the image will work>

And boiled water used in ice cube trays gives clear cubes rather than frosted ones.

Here we go again.
I've only got the blackbirds to worry about now and I assume they get water from all my windfall apples.
