What happened to blight?

Might be tempting fate here but I've been amazed and delighted that so far NO BLIGHT and the tomato harvest is nearly in!
I was sure I had it earliy in August but snipped off the couple of branches and nothing else developed....probably because it was so hot and dry.
Now the cold weather has arrived I suppose it's too chilly for the blight spores?
This is the first time I haven't had it....last year it was so early I had no crop at all so this year I grew MORE plants (72) in various locations round our garden (which is quite big) hoping at least some would escape.
And as ALL the plants have done so well I'm reduced (!) to oven drying as the freezers are full.
Brilliant!

We got blight on our plots a couple of weeks ago, but it doesn't show on the blight maps because it wasn't reported, presumably ( I don't think there are any potato growing farmers locally, to do so.

It was so late in the year, that I had a good harvest of main crops, regardless 

A lot of people including me, lost our tomatoes though, just before they started ripening 

This is the 1st year of 3 that we have been lucky enough to escape  the blight and have had a great crop of tomatoes. My freezer is packed full and I have jars and jars of various chutneys and the plants are still going strong. Now my neighbours are beginning to hide!!!! I'm very pleased with my tomatoes.

So you got affected by that lot in New Romney, did you Mums?

We were very lucky to have been far enough away from it, but there have been several scares on our plots,...

Poor you, it's not a good thing to happen!

Wiped out our toms literally overnight  mind you we had had plenty from the outdoor ones, the indoor as of last night were still ok

I came back from a week away thoroughly convinced I d be et by a scene of devastation. My heart beating a little quicker, I turned a bend and..... They were OK! Amazing! I m in SW London don t kno wif there s been a lot of it here. I did Bordeaux mix 3 times between June and September. I m just so happy. I think I ll even be able to make some sauce for preserving.
And the BLack Russians! OMG. I ve never grown a tomato with more flavour plus they look stunning, although they do have a tendency to split. No one's perfect.
