Love all the above and have loved finding this substack!!!
I am also cheersing to changing tubes and the tube you need is just pulling up as you get to the station 😍
Also cheersed recently when my toast popped up and landed on the kitchen counter perfectly, Wallace & Gromit style. In the words of Leon Jackson in 2007, there can be miracles if you believe.
Not only tube changing, but when you get on a random carriage and it turns out to be exactly the right one to line up with the exit on the platform of your destination. Cheerses to good trivial fortune 🥂
A fully enclosed floor to ceiling, soundproof public toilet is a gift from god. Also, I’d like to cheers to -“Buying a bin for a really narrow nook in your bathroom and finding out that it fits in said space with such perfect precision it makes you gasp.”
Cheers to when you throw out a random date like Thursday 16 Jan and your impossible to coordinate group of mates are all amazingly free. No need for annoying WhatsApp poll or Doodle Poll that everyone fills out and then totally ignores / overrides nearer the time. Cheers to when you discover you have already downloaded the car park app, and the password actually works and your vehicle is already registered. Joy of Joy. Cheers, cheers, cheers.
Tea at the perfect drinking temperature. Always feels like I've won at the day, instead of gulping down the rapidly cooling shambles I have usually left myself with.
2024 is the year of heatless curlers for me. I bought them on a whim and am absolutely infuriated at how good my hair looks. It is dangerous, having hair this good, that accessible. I am too powerful. Welcome to the heatless curl 🙏
Cheerses to being on a long haul flight and realising with absolute elation that there is an actual empty seat next to you when the cabin doors close. This happened to me when travelling from NZ to Doha with my 7 year old, it was a 17 hour NIGHT FLIGHT and meant she could lie down and sleep which she did for 10 straight hours. Yes I wept with joy whist drinking G&Ts and watching movies like it was an actual holiday. Cheers indeed!
That's amazing! I had this once flying to Canada, two seats free beside me so I could lie down like it was business class but a million pounds cheaper, it was epic.
I think that Tesco (in particular) have made Clubcard so integral to their pricing now, that it feels like while you may save up to 50% on the regular prices, those regular prices have been put up higher to compensate. They're just desperate to have everyone's (big) data, and to keep us coming back. Which in general is fine with me, but this is just another marketing technique.

HNY!! And 100% yes to the tube changing. When i lived in london I lived for this moment. Buses even more rare but when it happened…. WOW
Ooh yes the optimum commute is well worth a 🍻
Cheers to achieving the ideal balance of concentrated juice and water and thus creating the perfect drink. O, what a feeling.
YES oh boy yes

I feel this deep in my soul. ELECTRIC. Congratulations and cheers xx
The shopping centre in Brighton. Just saying.
When you find the exact item you need for a fancy dress costume in an op shop
We call the meandering time between Christmas and New Year, the Christmas Gooch, or just The Gooch. Cheers to that...

Love this - yes! And I’m not great at making tea so when I achieve the correct shade without leaving the bag in for too long CHEERSCHEERSCHEERS
Stevie, I’m new to you and you made me laugh out loud more times than anything I’ve read in a year. Cheers!

my nanna used to put cash (like £2) in random coat pockets so she’d forget and find them and get excited. Maybe I’ll start doing this.
Imagine the suprise happiness in the future! excellent plan -your nanna was a genuis.
Also I once found enough street money (10ps etc) to buy a box of weetabix
"I'd really like an Elizabeth Holmes-style black polo neck for that secret running joke I'm doing."
*Walks into charity shop. Immediately sees not one but TWO black polo necks. Buys both*
