On my trailer I've got bolts holding the T+GV wood sides to the frame. The bolts have shallow slots in the domed head. I can't get enough purchase on some of them to get them out. I'm sure I remember something called a reverse tap from when I worked in a tool shop
stud extractor
correction i mean screw extractor
A screw extactor is what you need, available here:
£2.49 a set from Screwfix.
Be afraid, be very afraid... no, not quite that bad, but extreme care is needed when removing not to put any sideways force on the extractor. They are harder than drill bits so (a) prone to snap and (b) can't be drilled out themselves - slow and careful!
Does Stelios know?
It would be quite pleasing to see/hear of Messrs. Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper and Terry Southern consulting Messrs. Sue, Grabbit & Run about Stelios and the prior use of and ownership of 'similar' names.
Heard on R4 the other day, some curry house owner has given in after being challenged over "Easycurry". He did comppound it IMHO by using black, white and orange as the colour scheme, claiming that Chicken Tikka Masala is orange.
