What can you hear right now?

[GreenBeanMcGee]

I'm listening to a combine harvester working in the field opposite my house. It's quite a sinister sound even though I know what it is.

What can you hear right now?

Owls hooting, sheep bleating and, way off in the distance, some cattle gently lowing

LCD soundsystem: daft punk is playing at my house.

Oh, and complete silence from the beautiful, stunning moon - sitting outside, with a cup of tea, just gazing at it in awe

Dspaniel snoring and mama Mia that DD is watching.

DS3 snoring through the baby monitor, the dog whiffing contentedly as I rub her belly, DH typing on his laptop, the neighbour at the back’s son playing the piano. I think it’s Chopin but I’m rubbish at recognising classical music. We’ve got the windows open to listen - he’s really good.

Rain sounds on Alexa.

Today notable noises have been tractors, geese flying overhead and hot air balloons. ATM Mamma Mia 2 and DD2 crunching ice cubes!

Absolutely nothing. DS and DH are on their iPads, headphones on. I’m on MN (obv), we love rurally spring no outside or neighbour noise. Lovely stuff.
(We are thinking of moving back to the city in the next year or so and I will miss this peace!)

DP playing on my the Switch. If I lean my head out the window a bit though I can just about hear the sea 🙂

Clock ticking. Cat grooming herself. Very, very faint radio in bathroom. Train trundling by in the distance.

*we live rurally so no outside...

That track was my EXHs alarm tone for years. It still makes me panic that I've slept in

I live in central Zone 2 London. I’m often surprised how quiet it is.

DH snoring in the spare room and DCat purring at the end of the bed. We've been away over the weekend and I'd like to think she's missed us and nothing to do with the packet of Dreamies she knows I have hidden in the bedside drawer

DSs are thankfully fast asleep and quiet after bickering all the way home in the car.

The low hum of dp's computer which annoyingly I've begun to find soothing , the dog running around trying to find dp and somehow missing him returning to the room not so quietly because she is not the brightest tool in the box

Bothered me earlier as we heard a small DC cry in the road outside so similar to ds2 (which is currently not well) that one went to check on ds2 and the other checked the window , I'm not judgy as a rule but ds2 is 4 Nd this child sounded exactly the same and it was late and dark . I know ther may have been a perfectly reasonable explanation but it felt wierd. Stupid I know.

The M3

Punctuated by the odd boy racer on the backroads nearby

Not a lot over the snoring dog!!!!!!!

Same here!

the fan in my bedroom, my dog snoring at the bottom of the bed and my very loud dp getting ready for bed

Telly (QI)
Passing traffic
Ds2 wittering on about episodes of something or other.
Tumbke dryer.
Not the the washer so the bugger probably turned it off again before he came in here.

Train in distance

My downstairs neighbour having a shower/ their bathroom fan, traffic noise at the end of the road, and my tinnitus.

DS1 turning over relentlessly in bed (whilst I lay on his floor as he won't go to sleep without someone in the room). He's 7!

Boyfriend snoring (through a shut door!), a drunk man wailing and walking very very slowly past our building.

TV on low (we aren't watching anything, it's just on in background) and kids giggling like maniacs (we go away tomorrow for a mini break before school and they are so excited, bless them!!)

The drier whirring, my husband snoring and the tennis commentary.
