I want to fill them ready for decorating but it is a tedious process. I
haven't found a good technique for getting the filler to the bottom of
the holes. So far I have been pushing some filler in, then tamping it
down, adding some more, tamping it down... I don't mind the doing of it
as such, but it slows everything down so much.

Any particular reason why you need to fill the full depth of the hole? I
normally find that filling it level with an appropriate filler (even of
that leaves 3/4 of the hole depth unfilled) is more than adequate for
cosmetic purposes.
