A low hum in Leven, Fife
Its like hearing a high flying plane but the sound isn't fading as a plane would as it passes by. Its a constant humming almost far away siren sort of sound. There is a alcohol bottling company near by, which sound an alarm if there are any spillages etc. But this is a varied siren and it very audible if you open a window or door. But this hum doesn't vary in tone and I couldn't hear is clearly after opening the door. And my mother cannot hear it.

A low hum with a specific pattern of long and short hums. Hear it mainly out of my right ear. It's not always constant. Some days I don't hear it at all and other times it's very loud (to me…
