Ice.... Rub an ice cube over the area to freeze it, then it should just peel off.

Probably more extreme than the option above but I think paraffin disolves chewing gum.

If an ice cube doesn't get cold enough, I was given a freeze spray in a can by a mate that did the trick... I think it was for freezing pipes so you can disconnect plumbing without turning the water off... Should be able to get some from B&Q

Might be a good idea to test carpet for colour loss somewhere out of site before applying liberally!

How about the freeze spray that politically correct types use to pick up dog sh*t??
