Thumbs up Re: Coast to Coast Walk (East to West) 2010

No, I wouldn't dream of lugging you AND your rucksack, and the blinkin filter , all those miles, I wouldnt last out anyway ! There was a Countryfile programme on during the night,it must have been a repeat, but was very interesting, about The William Shakespeare Way, (or is it 'Walk' ?) from Stratford on Avon.I was so darned tired I didn't absorb where it goes to, was it via Oxford?, where a friend of his kept a Public House, which is still there,To london, yes that's it cos he went to theatre-land in london. I wondered if you had ever walked that route, though possibly not your sort of terraine, being in a different part of the country, but you might know of it. Another thing I was going to ask you about water, do you divine for water, or does the map tell you where it will be.I've done a bit of divining, and got a smack in the face from the Hazel as I approached the source. I've also done dowsing for water, amongst other things. It is possible to dowse for water on the actual map of the area,But to actually find the water, and not just the general area, you need a large-scale map, (or do I mean small-scale), But if you combine the two things, i.e.Map-dowse to find the approximate area, then Divine with fork to find the exact spot is a good way to do it, I guess. .... If you strike oil, DON'T drink it, SELL THE RIGHTS !(Well, buy the land first,before you tell anyone there's oil there.) ...Posie...
