You do get superglue remover, not seen it in any shops here though, might need to try the internet.
Acetone is good for removing superglue also..

Try nail polish remover (as it is acetone based).

Thank you all for your help. I used nail varnish remover and a nail file to scrape the hardened superglue off my kitchen worktop. It took ages and ages but worked. thanks again.
