    Sounds heard from my balcony this week:

    • tram dings and trams accelerating
    • train horns
    • a man playing saxophone from a nearby balcony (I call him ‘The Sax Man’)
    • distant general construction
    • The Office (US) theme song from a neighbouring apartment every half hour or so
    • hooting and screaming from the social housing next door
    • helicopters
    • neighbour’s dog barking
    • birds tweeting, mostly lorikeets and pigeons
    • nearby general construction
    • skateboarders laughing and skating below in the alley
    • ambulance sirens
    • two tradies arguing over something to do with their EWP
    • sounds of glass smashing and people laughing at a nearby venue
    • a group singing Happy Birthday and cheering
    • cars on the road
    • drunk people laughing in the alley, on a pub crawl
    • general construction on my building
    • neighbour’s cat meowing
    • planes flying above
    • police sirens
    • the garbage truck
    • the motorcycle my neighbour drives and revvs in the alley like a hooligan (she is so lovely though 🤔)
    • the downstairs restaurant changing their kegs over
    • trash being put in the dumpsters

      This is a sound picture. Lovely. Life happening all around you, and you can choose to engage or choose not to.
