Jarvis, my handyman at my Somerset estate, says you need to score it with a Stanley knife before you soak it, Mary. That should help the water penetrate and the paper should lift away much more easily.
Ive already attacked the ceilin with stanley blades….. steel wool brush….. i swear they don’t make paste like this stuff… the actuall woodchip chips are fallin aff….. but the brown backin… JMMOG……

Always use a little washing up liquid, it helps desolve the wallpaper paste.
That was gonna be my suggestion too. Had the manky stuff on my walls when I first moved in years ago. Know what you mean mary, it comes off i three frighin layers. There’s also a solution you can buy at B&Q.

What you need Mary, is a big strong man to come and take it off for you. I suggest asking Jarvis again!
