You can feel headset play quite easily but standing over your bike, squeezing the front brake tight and then endo-ing the bike and moving it back and forwards (i.e. the rear wheel up and down). You'll feel any play through the bars.
As Hippy said anyway fork flexing is pretty normal. If they didn't flex they'd probably break.
