keystrokes, tick tock of clock and the PR murmuring to herself.
A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

My brain is both uninhibited and uninhabited.

did it get where it wanted to go or is it out of breath?   :facepalm2: :facepalm2: :facepalm2:

 It didn't get anywhere at all, it constantly runs in place!   :hamsterwheel:

^ Yeah, it's one of most annoying noise around, I think so too. Um, read you drove a forklift before and so did I, as a part of my job then, but the sound those lift trucks (other trucks as well) make when going in reverse I still really dislike too. Not sure this is a global thing (might not be a def. must/fines otherwise like it is here everywhere) but that loud PEEEEP  PEEEEP  PEEEEP  PEEEEP, etc. I always found quite annoying as well. Still hear that sound in the distance quite regularly (depending on the direction of the wind). It comes from a nearby industry plot but that sound carries for kms/mls.. um, and sucks also.

Blahiah.. (surry)
I remember some forklifts had more tolerable reverse beeps than others. The loader one used to get annoying as it was so loud.

Am hearing rain and a LOT of thunder. It is even scaring the cat.

Crowing of roosters, my fan running, and the occasional keyboard sounds.

Leaf-blowers again. Street cleaners doing their thing but luckily they're slowly moving away (judging from the sound).

The air conditioning (winding down), the fridge, and the occasional cat meow.
