Hi the paint on the old part of my House when there is rain or just moister in the air, it creates large bubbles ,the when the weather is dry its ok,but flakes off.i have last year on dry days scraped and wire brushed the wall then repainted with extria paint.

hi,maybe the problem is coming from the outside.repointing maybe needed or water down cavity
 
sounds like the paint is not adhering to the wall did you use any form of sealer/ undercoat before painting, also the walls need to be completly sanded or cleaned to allow to adhere. again also if the walls are timber maybe moisture is being retained from the conditions once again a sealer would needed to be used if your using aryclics switch to oil based
good luck
