What does your neighborhood sound like

[Sharla]

I live in Adelaide. I'm pretty lucky really - live in a leafy subburb about 10 mins walk to the city but Adelaide is small enough for that not to be madness.

There's a restuarant district and some parklands close by where outdoor family events like Corols by Candlelight etc are sometimes held. Sometimes I can hear music but i think something about being on the ground floor of a small apartment building with relatively quiet neighbours means I'm insulated from the noise and rarely kept awake.

There's an airport about 8 kms away so we hear an occasional plane fly over but again I never notice them at night.

Apart from that we have a possum in the yard who scampers along the fence but again it doesn't keep me awake.


.......... Having said that some asshole smashed the window in of the car I'm borrowing at the moment while I was asleep last week and I didn't hear a thing so maybe I just sleep like the dead!

I thought I heard a noise the following night and ran out there to check but no one was there. I was just wearing my PJs and armed only with my house keys so I'm not really sure of what I planned to do if I did actually catch him!

Our neighbours dont make a sound. He does have animal heads on plaques on his outside walls though so Im sure he's a nutter of some description.
