How do you substitute a string with spaces in, in Vim?

eg  %s:/some thing with spaces/with this/g

does not work - because of the search pattern rather than the substitute string.

I have read a lot, but other than concluding Vim can do almost anything, have
not worked out how to do the above.  I would use fgrep of course in other
situations.
