Just a straightforward one this week: talk to me about your favourite sounds, or your least favourite sounds, or both.
My favourites are, I suspect, pretty basic:
The movement of water (waves breaking, rivers flowing, water tumbling over rocks, etc)
The wind moving through leaves, or bare branches
Onions frying
Fire crackling
The crunch of dry leaves, twigs, or snow underfoot
Lots of sounds related to paper — pages turning, paper being cut with scissors or folded precisely, the sound of a fountain pen moving across the page
Babies laughing, or babbling, or small toddlers learning to talk
The song of Australian magpies
My least favourite sounds (other than obvious stuff like sudden unexpected loud noises) are audible chewing, or anything that sounds like lips smacking wetly — even just thinking of those sounds makes me grimace involuntarily.
What about you?
