So a few months ago I got myself my first "click type" torque wrench, loved the thing. And me being the stupid prat I am I got it out just now to torque up my brake caliper bolts and managed to wind the fucking thing past the 0 mark. Only by a little bit, but I still want to know if I should really worry about the accuracy of the wrench much, I wouldn't think it matters a whole lot, it's practically a brand new wrench, only used a hanfull of times. Any thoughts?

I wouldn't worry. That won't make it inaccurate [leaving them wound-up for long periods or whacking them with a hammer is what knocks them out].

Didn't think it'd matter much, if I really worry about it between not and it's next outing I'll do a redneck home test with a fixed bolt and some weights, the style I have is easy to adjust with very basic hand tools anyway, thanks for the help mate
