Thanks, yes I did try the perforation method. My daughter did suggest that Mrs Ludd might like to have a go, but she managed to escape that by inviting a friend round for coffee.
Anyway, the wall is now down, bar a number of bricks in the bottom course. Fortunately it was our visitors black merc that intercepted some of the flying fragments, rather than anyone else's car. And part of the wall was actually a lot easier than the rest, and I ended up doing the last 60% or so just with the sledgehammer. Our front garden is now a free-form rockery.
