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?

    I tend not to know what to say in a crisis, but at least I sound calm enough that I don't make things worse.

    It's been a long time since I got to hear rain on a tin roof.
