For the very few that really wont come out I find an angle grinder the
quickest solution. A quick gentle pass over it and everything's below
the surface ready to fill. You should get it out using a screw though,
1/4" in, and with claw hammer to lever it if necessary.

Hey - someone had to come up with the 'angle grinder' suggestion.
Well done NT !! The solution for everything.

The reason for asking is that I had tried the claw hammer technique
and there was sufficient resistance that I was concerned about pulling
the plaster off. I think on re-inspection that they are far enough in
that I may be able to get away with just filler.

Thanks
