Traffic on the road in the distance
Birds tweeting

Wind blowing down the chimney and Alex Polizza yelling at people on the Hole Inspector

I can't stop laughing at "hole inspector". 🤣

Bankholidayhelp · 22/03/2024 14:54

A steam train whistling

Sounds good!

Hecatoncheires · 22/03/2024 14:57

The wind blowing outside. The extractor fan in the bathroom. Birds squawking and chirping.

(What a nice thread).

Earphones in: evanescence 'bring me to life'

Oh are feeling a bit "emo" today I love that song its so dramatic!😂

Another patient singing her heart out to Johnny Cash songs in the corridor. It's infuriating as she sings the same bits over and over again. She keeps restarting the song so sings the first verse and chorus. MAKES ME WANT TO PULL MY EARS OFF.

Can also hear someone crying.

Joys of being sectioned in a psych ward.

  • TV in the background whilst I'm spending too much time on MN and
  • Another person with tinnitus. Today is slightly in my right ear a rusty tuning fork in my left ear 🌹

My dog chewing on a snack and the wind howling.

I've just come off another work call and it's almost 4 pm on a Friday. I need the silence.

Wilkolampshade · 22/03/2024 16:11

@Pnlolly hope you get some peace and rest soon love. 💐

The Piccadilly line tubes running under my house, people getting out of cars to go to the restaurants round the corner, pigeons fussing on the windowsill and some music, ever so faintly in the distance.

Panama2 · 22/03/2024 16:25

The bloody recorded message trying to get through to a person at Churchill Insurance because despite the message saying you can do everything online you can't

LenaLamont · 22/03/2024 16:29

The wind howling around the eaves, the purr of the cat dozing beside me here in the attic.

Tarkan · 22/03/2024 16:30

I'm now lying in bed and I can hear my 20yo watching some YouTube video, a train in the distance, and 2 of my 3 dogs running up and down the hallway playing.

Also being hit with tinnitus now I'm not near my noisy laptop.

paristotokyo · 22/03/2024 16:32

2 month old snoring (finally!) and birds chirping outside, neighbours dog barking in the distance and the hum of the refrigerator Smile baby will be awake soon I'm sure....

IncompleteSenten · 22/03/2024 16:35

My cat is snoring and the church bells just dinged the half hour.

OldMrsHempstock · 22/03/2024 16:36

Ponies clip clopping around the yard. A tractor. People chatting. Birds tweeting.

Titsywoo · 22/03/2024 16:37

Lots of strangers chatting. Am on train to London to meet DD who is coming back from uni for Easter.

ComputerInitiateJump · 22/03/2024 16:37

Is it the truth? Or is it a lie!

FiferPiped · 22/03/2024 16:40

Humming and clunking from the fridge freezer. Next door’s dog yapping from inside their house cos they’ve gone out. A wood pigeon in the silver birch nearby.

Halfwayuporhalfwaydown · 22/03/2024 16:41

Insects, red kites calling overhead, cows calling to their calves, DH building a stone wall, a tractor trundling past.

TheMixedGirl · 22/03/2024 16:47

The house settling. My dog quietly snoring. Cars in the distance/outside. My phone typing tap.

MrsDrakeRamoray · 22/03/2024 19:31

The washing machine and my toddler playing and laughing away :)

colourblindrainbow · 22/03/2024 19:38

The tv, the humidifier bubbling it’s steamy delicious air out, the cats water fountain from the kitchen (I need to top it up, it shouldn’t be audibly trickling), ds2 quietly gaming in his room, one of the cats have just joined me and she is giving herself a bath, oh and I can hear one of the cats crunching biskwits in the kitchen too and the cat flap has just gone so the other one must be off out for an evening walk.
