I'd Rather Be a Hammer Than a Nail
- A play about
Countersunk Screws and the Meaning of Life by MIKE VAUGHAN EDWARDS with and When Norman Goslett flatly refuses to splash out on an expensive kitchen cupboard for his wife, he has no idea that his thrift will cost him all but his sanity and when his meagre knowledge of DIY becomes pure wizardry, its effect is not so much a snowball as an avalanche.
