With the tomatoes I took no precautions DD, the potatoes were Setanta which are supposed to be the most blight resistant you can buy.

Hi Jay G, I managed to pick about twenty toms that were ok, the rest of the ripening and green fruit were brown on the bottom of the edible bit.

That does sound like the blight had reached the fruit; sorry to hear that.   

Hopefully you will be able to salvage your spuds.

I hope so too !

Yep, it can just blow in through the door/window.

"Full Smith period" notification just received.

Sunday's got a dry forecast so I think I might just harvest all my maincrops anyway.  At least I'll minimise slug/wireworm stuff if I do it now.  Hopefully.
