Drums off, spin the adjuster for the shoes - can't for the life of me remember which way you spin it but you'll see when they're off.

There's also the cable on top of the rear axle, it goes through a metal thing with a nut on the outside, turn the nut and that loosens/tightens it. That's what my Haynes manual said to do anyway. Be careful because if you do it too much, it makes the brakes stay permanently on
