Dog breathing, motorway traffic even though it's quite far away, I like it though. Washing machine.

Mum497 · 06/04/2021 22:23

My oh brushing his teeth

79andnotout · 06/04/2021 22:23

Gogglebox, my dog's wet farts, and tinnitus.

Pascha · 06/04/2021 22:23

Cat licking bumhole. Nice. Thanks Hmm

KurtWilde · 06/04/2021 22:24

DC chatter as they play on Xbox, dogs faffing about finding their comfy spots for the night, heating humming, neighbour DC shouting and banging.

Houseofvelour · 06/04/2021 22:26

Tinnitus, wind outside and the door banging in a draft.

VictoriaBun · 06/04/2021 22:27

Very quiet here , mainly silence and the occasional tap tap of my dh on his pc replying to a post on his diy forum in the next room.

Cleverpolly3 · 06/04/2021 22:27

My ice cubes in my gin and tonic.
The dog snoring away next to me
Three cats grooming and purring around me on the sofa/ floor
Wind outside
One of the kids just got up and used the toilet and didn’t wash their hands so I’m off up there in a minute!

Soon an old episode of real housewives of New York will be on as I need some escapist shit to get me through the night (insomnia, court stress with my ex, other worries that mean I rarely go to bed for sleep at all so have set up camp on the big sofa)

Horridcreature · 06/04/2021 22:28

Odd car driving past, radiator rattling

HereIfYouNeedMe · 06/04/2021 22:28

White noise, baby monitor, DH asleep breathing and cat snoring ❤️

BrownEyedGirl80 · 06/04/2021 22:30

Dh snoring

Christmaselfie · 06/04/2021 22:30

I can hear Dp breathing and noise from the main road.

Echobelly · 06/04/2021 22:31

Fridge humming - that's it. Everyone else is in bed!

Gooseygoosey12345 · 06/04/2021 22:31

My fan and the weird clicking noise the baby monitor makes Hmm

echt · 06/04/2021 22:31

Australian magpies gurgling and carolling.
Rainbow lorikeets squawking.
Sulphur-crested cockatoo just gone over, screeching.

Fridge humming.

RoseMartha · 06/04/2021 22:32

One of my dc in the loo just sitting there does this every night for about an hour. Waits for bladder to fill. Drives me nuts.

DangerousMouse · 06/04/2021 22:34

My fucking cat licking and scratching himself at the foot of my bed...

Ironmanrocks · 06/04/2021 22:35

My own breathing....otherwise absolutely nothing..,,,it's SO quiet here. Sometimes hear pheasants squawking or the tawny owls hooting. Not anything right now though.....

LaBelleSauvage123 · 06/04/2021 22:36

That annoying repetitive music that comes on BBC HD after the news and DH slapping his head in time to it. The cat yowling for food even though her bowl is full.

Reinventinganna · 06/04/2021 22:36

Dog snoring, the cat cleaning itself and some wind coming down the chimney.

TheMotherlode · 06/04/2021 22:37

White noise coming from DDs room, and whatever DH is watching on TV downstairs

MargaretThursday · 06/04/2021 22:39

Budgies and dd typing on her computer.

StripedLeopard · 06/04/2021 22:40

DH snoring

Mumoblue · 06/04/2021 22:41

So many people with tinnitus! I have it too but not too bad and not all the time. If anyone reading this hasn’t tried the head tapping trick, put ‘tinnitus head tapping’ into YouTube and watch the video demonstrating it. I have to use it sometimes to get to sleep if it’s particularly bad.

As to the thread, I can hear my the muffled sound of my brother talking downstairs and occasionally the baby making a noise in his sleep next to me. Smile
