Tomato bags and tomatoes in unrude health

Fellows gardeners,

I grew some tomatoes last year. They were doing fine until the second Belgian monsoon that year (in August), whereupon their lives were blighted. Thinking I was boxing clever this year I bought some of those plastic covers (kind of a tube). A keen gardener but not very good at DIY (if you think I'm being unduly modest ask my Luxembourg wife  for her opinion). Anyhow, the picture that accompanied the product showed the bags attached at the top of a cane with twine and the bags covering various vegetables, including tomatoes that were in very rude health. On the picture the bags were trailing on the ground, not attached.
I took my tomato plants, in rude health, to the allotment, and emulated the drawing.  The first snag off course was that as the bag is merely tied at the top it keeps slipping down when buffeted by a bit of wind.Well there has a been a lot of wind over the last week so they have taken right royal buffeting and are now looking very sorry for themselves. I've now attached the bags to the grounds with wire (in imitation of tent pegs). To keep a short story long, will my plants recover, do you think (some of the branches have broken off and some of the leaves look a bit "burnt")? Should I start again, should I forget this bag idea all together? All suggestions gratefully received.

Me neither Anton, but I think your tom's should recover, especially if the leader hasn't been lost. But you could re sow to be on the safe side, like Aunt Sally suggest's.

Not dense Anton, its the leading shoot of the plant. On a tomato it's the top of the main stem.
