Have really dry grippy hands and give it a good tug whilst rotating it. Mine comes up easy haha. If not get a plank of wood and put it against the seat whilst you pull up at one end. like this... /

Go to your local motor factors and ask for a jar of Elbow Grease.. Smear some on and give it another go.

I recommend Castol Elbow Grease btw, it makes everything that much easier It works better than these budget brands you get too.
