Glad you are making a recovery - hope you will soon be fully better.
Sowing now - Broad beans - overwintering variety such as Aquadulce.
Still time for some garlic varieties I think.
There is a saying that you can plant garlic on the shortest day and harvest on the longest. So you still have a little time still left for garlic. Not sure how you plant it if it is very cold but seems we are still in for warm weather all this week.

Eric reckons the same for shallots :)
If you have a windowsill spare why not try some of the leafy veg that grow quite well indoors?
Things like Mizuma, Kailan, Green Lance, salad leaf mixtures, Rocket etc.
Peas, broad beans and winter onion sets if the ground is workable.
New fruit bushes and rhubarb, again if the ground is workable.
;D ;D ;D
