Trivial things that please you beyond all expectations

We've had motion-sensitive lights installed in the looooong straight downstairs corridor.

Now when you walk down it, you feel like you're in a blimming Sci-Fi movie. It is cool beyond all expectations 😎 :P

I keep meaning to do that on my stairs.
Otherwise the kids will ALWAYS leave the f****** lights on , 24x7!

My parents thought that. Then I left home and they discovered that the lights were still mysteriously left on.

I took my mutt for a haircut yesterday. On entering the shop I spotted some dog coats for sale. I told the staff that I liked a particular one and would think about buying it while he was having his haircut. When I went to collect him two hours later, I noticed they'd put the coat on him. I'm not bothered at all about that as one has to be slightly pushy in business. On paying for his haircut the shop's owner only charged me for his cut, forgetting the dog coat they were hoping to sell.

I said to her that I liked the coat and wanted to buy it, adding she'd forgot to charge me. She thanked me for telling her about the coat and then knocked ten percent off the cost of the coat for my 'honesty'. I declined the offer, but she insisted on knocking off ten percent. How nice of her was that eh.

Checking my wildlife cams, I found that two of them automatically update the time when the clocks change

An old primary school at the end of my road was converted into a centre for children with behavioural problems. They used to stand outside it at lunch time and 'borrow' money from vulnerable people. It is now a burnt out shell. I think one of the pupils must have set it on fire but the locals won't be sorry to see it go either.
