[stylist] Do these actions make noises?

[helene ryles]

Thanks very much James for such a vivid description of what a block of
flats might sound like. It will be very useful.

Thankyou also to Judith for describing the sounds a child would make
sucking a pasifier. So now I know what they are called in USA.
Actually I think calling them a pasifier makes more sense.

Helene.
