No more nails in Spain
 
Is 'No More Nails' available in Spain, or is there a local equivalent?

Yes there definitely is, I can't remember exactly its name but it's pretty much an exact translation. No mas clavos perhaps?

i'm confused, me. if you dont want no more nails,why are you asking for them? i don't want no more cold and rain but you don't hear me asking for them!!
reminds me of when i ran a grocery store in london. i wrote in white chalk on my front window "heinz beans a shilling a can", grocery shop next door was run by a nice greek fella, he wrote on his window "heinz beans eleven pence a can". couldn't beat that, so i wrote on my window "potatoes six pence a large bag" and he was furious. he wanted to know how i could sell at that price and i told him i didn't have any in stock and so could sell them at whatever price i wanted. business you see.

Reminds me of a sign someone round here put up in his front garden "Pick your own roses" as he was fed up of passers-by picking his :p
