I think you all owe Carolyn an apology.

Remember how you scoffed when she had me dowsing for fault lines in a field behind her house a couple of years back? Remember how you guffawed when I pointed out that this is what a fault actually looks like:

The Howgill Fells two years ago.

Remember how you clutched your trousers in mirth when I quipped:

If you do happen to notice one of these in your garden, please let me know.

Well, I just discovered an online British Geological Survey map of the Hebden Bridge area, and there appears to be what can only be described as an invisible fault line running right underneath my next-door neighbour’s house.

So, you all stand corrected. Carolyn was right, and you were wrong.

(Apart from all that nonsense about dowsing, obviously.)
