Clearly screws are better than nails in most situations … why then do we say β€œnailed it” to mean getting something right, and β€œscrewed it” to mean getting something wrong?

So much of Great Britain was under Norse and Danish control for so long, the sagas should be strongly featured on the National Curriculum

It’s early days but I am slowly coming to terms with the cold reality that I don’t in fact live on a tour bus

Thanks all - I should have said - I do know how it goes and I have googled it already. Just wondering if anyone has heard it anywhere in real life, particularly if you were frequenting Sharps folk club in the early 90s
