Little VictoriesI recently received a £2 voucher from a supermarket after complaining vociferously about the poor quality of their own-brand Rich Tea biscuits, which I spent on more tasty, tasty biscuits. Tell us about your trivial victories that have made life a tiny bit better.

Arrgh...The fucking hook-turn. Yes, I know how to do them, no, it makes no fucking sense whatsoever.
My first few weeks in Melbourne I was nearly mown down by drivers doing what in any other country in the world would be an illegal manoeuvre. I was eventually educated by a young copper who couldn't keep the grin off his face.
To turn right, in Melbourne where you share the road with trams, you start from the far left lane (remember you're turning right...), loiter in the left lane, blocking oncoming traffic, until the lights in front of you go red and then turn smartly right and try not to mow down unsuspecting pedestrians....
Did I say I understood the hook-turn? I may have being lying...
Cheers
