Weapon Of Choice

If houses came with a log book this is what mine would say:

16 June 1970:   Hung wallpaper using new-to-market wonder-product, Superglue.
17 June 1970: Papering continues.  Superglue proving slow and expensive.  Now using trusted flour/water mix.

These two (imagined) entries might explain why it's so bloody hard to get the one layer of paper off.   Efforts continue.
