Louis’s new joe exotic doc. Central heating hum.

Tempusfudgeit · 06/04/2021 21:35

The fan on the PS4 sounding like an aeroplane taking off. My baby breastfeeding. My heavy-footed husband on the landing.

SpeckledyHen · 06/04/2021 21:35

My audiobook and tinnitus 👂

Finewine76 · 06/04/2021 21:36

Football and a dog toy squeaking

thefirstmrsrochester · 06/04/2021 21:37

Dh and eldest DS shouting (muffled) at the football from upstairs, and my cat yowling to be let back out again so she can catch another mouse to present to me. Cat aside, I have the downstairs of the house to me, myself and I for now and it’s bliss.

Dog softly snoring, fridge humming, clock ticking

Fuckingcrustybread · 06/04/2021 21:38

Frogs, loads of frogs croaking, calling each other. Just frogs and a few crickets in the background.
Frogs.

The same child crying at the daycare next to our building who has been crying almost non-stop for weeks. The staff must be going nuts.

The air make up unit on the building next door sort of "ticking."

Construction noise from blocks away.

QueenofWakanda1 · 06/04/2021 21:39

My neighbour's 5 month old baby crying.

SpringtimeSummertime · 06/04/2021 21:39

The fan next to my bed.

Laeta · 06/04/2021 21:39

Dog snoring.
Teenage son xboxing
Teenage daughter pottering
Oil fired central heating struggling

Hedgesfullofbirds · 06/04/2021 21:40

Tinnitus! And owls hooting outside with sheep and lambs bleating in the background

kennelmaid · 06/04/2021 21:41

Liverpool v Real Madrid, complete with commentary in Swedish (don't ask)

bruffin · 06/04/2021 21:41

Dumbledore talking to Harry Potter and DH pusting a new mechanism in the toilet cistern

SomethingNastyInTheBallPool · 06/04/2021 21:42

The kettle boiling. The rustle of foil as DP divides up an Easter egg.

Xiaoxiong · 06/04/2021 21:43

Some twat with a really noisy engine revving outside to accelerate past the house (we live on a road out of town.

I don't know if lockdown is quieter so I notice really loud engines more, or if people are driving obnoxiously loud cars more at the moment. I feel like every other car or bike passing the house sounds like a Harley Davidson and backfires frequently, and I have also seen these ridiculous quad bike things on the road recently too making an almighty din.

PradaBallbag · 06/04/2021 21:43

Absolutely nothing, and it's bliss. I've come to bed with my kindle. For once, husband and daughter are making zero noise! It won't last...

Tiredandbored · 06/04/2021 21:44

Nothing. In bed early to enjoy my book in peace, rural so no cars, kids are sleeping, bliss!!

LysistrataVickers · 06/04/2021 21:45

My sparkling water fizzing by the bed and DS2 snoring next to me.
DH has been demoted to the spare bed because he snores even worse than DS2.

No noise at all from outside.

RifRafia · 06/04/2021 21:45

Cat purring very loudly on top of my tummy (her favourite spot!); quiet breaths of my DS asleep next to me.

HUCKMUCK · 06/04/2021 21:46

Thor Ragnarok - DH is watching - I'm only paying attention to the Loki bits!

DS is upstairs on his Xbox so the occasional shout from him.

I'm on my laptop so did have music on but paused it to post - I was listening to Hooked on Classics yes I am that cool!!!
