All this modern technology. I'm known to still use dowsing rods!

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

I thought @Enlli that dowsing rods became obsolete fifty years ago - clearly not the case ! 😀

Few older guys working for United Utilities still use them, although the company deny that's the case.

A few years back I found a water feed into a building that was not documented.

Well, I found an undocumented water feed into a house before they used the digger.

Talk of "rhabdomancy" @pgn had me checking online to establish what you were referring to - not a word that you hear every day, although something that you can imagine featuring in the WRQ ! 👍
