What do you want to do better at?
I am trying to reverse engineer an answer to that ..
I have been presented the gift of redundancy and the gardening leave begins next week; I promised myself I'll get better by doing some off bike work during this time but if the sun is shining that can fuck off. So I need a purpose. Otherwise I'll just gram #slackermiles

You have a decent road bike don't you and are reasonably small/light? Would probably suggest Road Racing in that case, as you don't need to buy a load of aero-bongo / new bike...
In which case I would look at training for fairly short efforts (couple of mins) and increasing you ability to quickly recover from those efforts, given that we don't tend to have long 10min+ climbs in many of the road races in this country.

What do you want to do better at?
Presuming you want to be better at racing - but what type? Crits/Road Racing/TT/track?
All have pretty different power requirements.
Increasing your FTP will be great for doing 25m TT's but might not help a huge amount when Crit racing, where focusing on increasing your power for shorter efforts would likely lead to better results, for example.
