What can you hear right now?

[Pinkpowderpuff]

Clock ticking
DH saying goodnight to DS1 upstairs
The fridge whirring
Cat purring on my lap

The sea
Someone banging stones
People talking
Kids having fun and laughing and screaming (for a change not mine. On my own).
The wind

The radio going on and on about Philip
The printer humming
My boss typing (badly!)
Cars on the main road outside

My cats having fisticuffs through a glass door
Ds on a work call upstairs
The fridge humming
Bird sounds

3 kids playing happily
Neighbour cutting back their hedgerow
Wind chimes
Cars on the main road
Building work

The dishwasher running a cycle, DD sneezing (take your Cetirizine!!) and the occasional car

The clock ticking
The filter/airstone in the fish tank making a soft trickling sound.

It's very relaxing. Ds is out with friends, dh is in bed as night-shift tonight. House is so quiet. I could really dose off right now. Gtg shopping though 😕

The t.v, the living room fish tank and the kitchen fish tank.

Laptop fan
Helicopter hovering

Husband snoring
Electric buzzing

Plane

Cars.

A motorbike.

My own breathing.

Oh, and guess what? That's right. Fucking tinnitus.

A few people have said tinnitus, how bad is it? I can hear a very low level hum when it's quiet at night but I think that's just things like e.g. fridge, radiator hum etc

@Frownette It's different for different people. Mine is high pitched electrical zapping noise then different lower tones in each ear. Best place to tell if it's in your head is to sit in the car somewhere quiet. If it's tinnitus you'll be able to hear it. Don't worry if it is - sounds like yours is quiet enough to not be bothersome.

Birds chattering, chickens clucking, cockerel crowing, the washing machine sloshing rhythmically. I’ve been hiding in the bathroom for far longer than is strictly necessary because it’s so wonderfully peaceful.

The fridge humming.
Neighbour locking up & driving away.
Rain outside
The odd movement from upstairs - not sure if dd2 is awake or not.

Ds2 playing a game on his tablet that seems to be lots of characters saying "Hello!"
Ds2 stacking the dishwasher badly.

DD playing Animal Crossing
Cat purring
Radio faintly from the kitchen

@Pinkpowderpuff I'll do an experiment in the (quiet) park later :)

Yours sounds a lot more distracting. I can't hear anything at the moment aside from the pigeons and occasional vehicle.

The wind howling outside around our 8th floor balcony. Really windy here. It has been windy and cold for days. It has killed my sweet peas and nasturtium seedlings. That'll teach me for putting them out too soon.

Tonight I can hear -
DS1 watching rubbish on YouTube
Aromatherapy vaporiser gently humming
Budgie eating seeds
DH chomping on chocolate 😐
Boiler humming
DS2 singing in bed
Tinnitus

Brahms lullaby

Window open, I can hear the distance sounds of cars

Baby snoring, husband snoring, occasional snore from toddler’s room (I’m the only one without a cold 🙄). Slight hum from the heater in our room. Occasional noises from the house rabbit downstairs jumping about.

The extractor fan, the dishwasher and some music coming from the other room. It’s oddly peaceful in here so I’m lying on the sofa not moving to join the rest of the family
Please don’t tell anyone I’m here!
