I am inspired by the sonic environment of my town and the difference between the sounds here, and in Bristol. All the bird singing (this excludes seagulls and includes doves, chiff-chaffs, robins, blackbirds), the sound of the railways nearby with at least six trains running every hour, the gangs of dogs behind the fences all barking at a different pitch, the builders shouting and hammering (as they build the roof of houses), the sounds of the engine starting up in a little moped in the distance, the clatter of the postman’s bike (as he rides along the street to deliver the letters), the crowing of cocks every now and then (to remind everyone who is the king in the courtyard)…
