I don't even know you, and I hate you already! (No! I'm just kidding)
Here in England where I live we cannot grow a decent tomato outside, even
though our summer has been quite hot at times.

That's not true everywhere.

I don't know where you are but I'm in Leeds, Yorkshire, and although our tom
crop isn't as abundant as it was last year we have no blight - nor in
potatoes. We've had nothing but rain since May, until this week.

All we have is tomato blight. Some in the greenhouse are doing OK, but we
can count the ones we harvest in a week on one hand.

Where are you? I'm collecting a handful of toms a day from the greenhouse.

I am so envious of your tomato bounty, we've never been able to grow
proper tomatoes here.

I suspect that your local conditions must be a problem. It's certainly not
true of the whole of UK.
