I don't water the garden, only the greenhouse.

Which reminds me, I thought of going on a water divining course this
year. might be fun Won't help get water but if I move i can make
sure I'm not sitting on an underground lagoon!

I can water divine but haven't learned enough about depth and water
quality to go into it properly. Ray can't do it but felt the divining
rod moved in his hand when I held the opposite fork of it. and we held
hands. (Yes, yes, rude remarks already anticipated!) Matthew, who is
Ray's son, was deeply sceptical but astonished when the rod moved in his
hands. I went on a course, several years ago now, just to see what we'd
be taught and it was fascinating. This particular teacher had found old
settlements on Dartmoor, so it's not only water that can be found. And
the idea that it has to be a willow twig is nonsense. The best I had -
and I've lost it (!) was made out of two bits of packing plastic stuff,
bound together with sticky tape. They flexed nicely and were quite
short so easy to hold at the required angle and tension. I'd say go for
it - at the very least it's an interesting experience. People who have
never experienced it will scoff but when the divining rod moves in your
hands and nearly takes the skin off as you try to hold it steady, you'll
know you've got the knack!

I can't divine but when I worked in Hastings my Boss could, he got me to
hold the Hazel twig, and he put his hands on the back of mine, after a
couple of steps the twig was almost ripped out of my hands.
I'm a believer.
