What are your five favourite sounds? If you only like one or two sounds, you can still participate, by the way.
Mine would be:
(1) My son laughing (especially if it’s me that’s making him chuckle)
(2) My parents laughing (as above)
(3) The roar that greets a Fulham goal — to fully appreciate this, it’s best to be sat in with the opposition fans.
(4) A wine bottle being uncorked.
(5) Being out on an early-morning bike ride and hearing the birds singing.
Honourable mentions to waves lapping against the shore, leather on willow, the sound of a heavy, long-awaited poo breaching the toilet water, and the wroof-wroof sound that’s generated when you walk at pace in mustard cords.
Fulham FC: It's the taking part that counts

1. The sound of a parent getting up in a restaurant and taking their crying fking kid outside. 2. The loud crash when a dickhead driver/motorcyclist speeds past you right into another vehicle. 3. Final whistle when QPR are leading in a match we're meant to lose. 4. The gentle bump when the plane you are on lands safely. 5. The static noise at the start of a good HBO TV show.
Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore running down the wing. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore running down the wing. He runs like a cheetah. His crosses couldn't be sweeter. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore.

On point 3 - does that mean you'll be sitting with us lot at the end of this month???
I do a lot of walking in North Wales and I love the sound of the streams (which ultimately become rivers) running over the rocks. Very happy sitting next to one of these and munching on a cheese and onion roll. Simple pleasures and all that.
The crunch of a fresh apple is a nice sound too (after the cheese and onion roll)...
I notice Blob is well and truly settled in Wales with his choice of 9 hours of rainfall.
"Thank you for supporting Queens Park Rangers Steep Staircase"... and I thought I'd signed up for a rollercoaster.
A favourite sound, is when the boats arrive back in the harbour after being away for the winter and there is the tinkling and clanking sound they make and it's the first sign that the good weather is on the way
The silence of the Welsh hills with the odd sheep and bird noise - it's a peaceful silence with the odd noise that I've never heard before
Most music but especially trance
The rhythmic sound of a train on a track (usually with the added scenery of Dawlish and that area)
That first crackle of a Vinyl record when the needle goes on
The sound of the front door shutting when the missus goes out
Sitting in a bar hearing the waves in the distance, thats when you know your on Holiday
The wall of chatter and laughter as you enter a busy pub, ( you know your in for the duration)
The crowd & PA Noise when you follow the steps up to your seat at HQ
And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

2) QPR scoring a goal [don't need to be in the away end to appreciate it ;) ]
3) The sound of a good, big, motorbike or car engine (V4/V8/V12 preferably)
4) The sound of the front door at work closing behind me as I go home for the day
5) The distance sound of thunder and rain and/or the gentle sound of the ocean/waves lapping onto shore.
I'm going to shore-horn a 6th one, a 'Joker' card if you like .... A good deep, loud fart!!! My own of course. I know it's considered rude but we happily accept a sneeze from someone yet that is far more contagious than a fart whilst the latter is healthy for you as it releases pressure on the colon etc. Of course, I do ensure I'm alone when I do one but lets face it, we all enjoy it don't we?!

The dawn chorus in spring. Owls calling at night. Steam trains starting off. Prop job planes. Rolls Royce Merlin's preferably. The crackle of needle to vinyl. Someone else on here already has this, but I like it too.
There aint half been some clever bastards.

1) Foreign languages and church bells drifting through your bedroom window on a holiday morning 2) Somebody saying 'thanks' 3) Somebody you love saying 'I love you' 4) The sound of my surfboard slapping the water on a clean and sunny day 5) A final whistle roar.
"The opposite of love, after all, is not hate, but indifference."
im Suprised no one has said the sound of Hand Slapping a buxom Arse
And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

I Agree with Konk, and he has Cornered the market for his excellent thread , RE his children and parents laughter, as thisis for me my favourite sound( although it does sound like something Johnny Mathius would incorporate into a song on pebble mill at one ) so,
The sound of a minimoog/Roland Tb 303 the greatest single invention for an Electronic music fan. The enigma Machine of the music world.limitless possibilities and sounds( they look wonderous as well)

Sydney james laugh/Rik Mayall Laughing ( Still cant believe he's gone)
Gerry Francis Talking, He may have the tone / Vocal Arrangement of Martin Booreman presenting a sawtooth configuration lecture on the open university at 3.45 am, but i love that Man, and i imagine thats how angels will sound when i finally turn up my toes due to A sexually Charged Mica paris in full golden shower mode , upping the voltage as im wired to an upturned metal bed frame.
