Default When to give up on outdoor tomatoes due to blight

I'm seeing the first signs of blight.

A few dark patches on stems, a few marked leaves, a few marked tomatoes.

Mostly the tomatoes seem fine, there is still a large crop and they are
still ripening.

What is the best way to prolong cropping, and how long do you think I can
get away with it?

Cheers

I'm going to pick the last of my outdoor toms tomorrow. This is the
first year without blight for over 10 years. I've had 2 or 3 Blight
Watch warning messages but no blight here.
