Looks like it's arrived in Hillingdon. I guess that determines what I

I think blight has hit most, if not all areas. We just have to grin and
bear it i'm afraid this year. It's not just you, you havn't done anything
wrong.


Oddly, all of the potatoes on the allotment seem to have blight, but the
tomatoes, which normally go first, are all up still (not mine, I'm too
nervous to put mine out and they are still hiding in pots in the greenhouse!)
