Obsession

There's a great article on the Torygraph's website about how gardening boosts men's sex lives. Normally I like to find the article concerned to assess the accuracy of the journalism, but I can just about cope with the geological academic literature - medical journals terrify me!

So I presume that, while the conclusion that gardening will help you get your end away is perhaps something of an exaggeration, nonetheless there will be a cohort of men of a "certain age" out digging this weekend.

But it was one paragraph near the end of the article that got me.
Some people have become so obsessed about their garden that there are worries that people are getting addicted to the pursuit just like they would to gambling or drugs.
Pure fiction. I don't know anyone that addicted to gardening. Do you?

Umm... *gets coat*
