sprinkler gone awol
-
So here I am after a rainy winter watering the garden again. And I noticed something missing. One of the sprinklers won't pop up. Now I know it's general placement on the grass patch but short of taking it all apart I have run out of ideas as to finding it. So I am open to suggestions from this esteemed establishment's members :-)

look for the spreading puddle as the water finds its way out without pushing up the sprinkler head?

Turn on the zone you think it's on and let it run for a couple of hours. There should be a puddle around where it is.
- S 50 cups of coffee and you know it's on! Code, follow, or get out of the way.

Did that. Dug with fingers. No joy :-(

Presumably you have other sprinklers that are evenly spaced in a line. Go to the midpoint between two of the sprinklers on either side of the one where you suspect it is. Dig there.

Make an anonymous call to MOSAD, tell them there is explosives buried under your garden. They will find the said sprinkler, the other sprinklers, the clay village from around 500 AD, the ritual burial from 2000 BC, the mammoth bones from 5000 BC and in the deeper geological stratum(yes, I had to look this up in the dictionary) a 10 000 years old bark with the very first CP Lounge post crafted on it.

... and the signiture will read: Girl: (staring) "Why do you need an icy cucumber?" “I want to report a fraud. The government is lying to us all.” I wouldn't let CG touch my Abacus!

:-D You do realize you live in the same country as the guy and you can be involved in a hit-and-run with mobility scooter incident in the next days?
