Haha, yeah. I basically live at work (in a kitchen, im a chef). And i just dont hear most of the noises in that place. Either its the same thing as
you ignoring the whistle; or im just going deaf! haha.

It's one of my favorite sounds. Sit back in the buggy, park the kite off the shoulder and hear them sing to the surf!
