How to tell where you garden is facing? (South/North etc)

If it is all dark when you look, wait until it next reads that value. Alternatively, upgrade to an analogue watch. The Australian method works with either kind of watch, and at any time of day or night. When lost in the bush, take off your watch, turn round three times, then throw it as far as you can, keeping an eye on the direction. You can now work out all the other compass directions, as your watch has gone west. -- Mike. |
