Unfortunately I got Bronchitis for Christmas! Started Monday evening, diagnosed on Christmas day. On Antibiotics now so cannot even sample the red! I have not managed to do anything in the garden, have only been firing on one cylinder. I have really enjoyed reading all your cheery comments the last few days to give me some distraction.
I am 50% better today and I managed to get soil under my nails at last!!! I have just repotted the Lemon Tree - a warm indoor job.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/garden_serf/3137899393/I also got a £20 voucher for the local garden centre and I am on a promise for something else I know not what!!! (To ill to partake in it this week I am told!!).

Dear garden_serf, so sorry to read you are feeling quite poorly, hope you carry on improving with all possible hast, and are fully recovered for the New Year.
The being on a promise bit sounds quite exciting.

Get better soon, garden serf!
I did my first digging today after succumbing to a rather nasty virus mid-December. Really enjoyed it but my legs ached afterwards. At least, as it's freezing now, the frost should get into the dug patch, which was the idea.

I are mostly bin buildin a shed from freecycle sourced timber.
However that fat bloke with a sleigh didn't visit Wickes for me and get some corrugated roofing, so I'll have to do it myself.

You're still pretty delusional then?
Nice to see you back on here Peter, even if you are out to get me.
