Hi Ian,

       Possible, but I don't see why the ground should react? However, you 
have also been having a lot of rain, which certainly can effect the tilt. The 
land under your house stays dry, while the garden absorbs water and swells up?

       There shouldn't be any hysteresis in the Lehman itself, but there may 
be in the land tilt.
