Now I'm REALLY p****d off

[angle shades]

  just a mini rant,

Like many folk I've lost pretty much everything on my plot due to flooding,

my saving grace was my beloved tomatoes in the greenhouse

today they have blight
/ shades x

[manicscousers]

i didn't think it was normal to get blight on greenhouse toms..we've never had it, thank goodness
anyone else?

[angle shades]

 :)neither did I but Tim did a thread on fumigation last year which got quite heated  and it came up then,


what can I do?

my mistake was keeping the window open whilst we are having torrential rain, I was trying to get air circulation/ shades x

Oh dear shades, sorry to hear about your toms - isn't this year a right pig?  We've only just started our plot thisyear, but have already pretty much lost everything - to say i'm depressed is an understatement 

[angle shades]

 :)bless you Kitten,

I thought the worst of the flooding was over on Friday , the river had gone down etc , but today plot worse than ever,

I t could be worse we have been on a flood warning for over a week, ( I  would
rather lose my plot than my house)

Take care Kitten and don't give up, next year has to be better doesn't it? / shades x

[flossie]

Oh no - did not realised that we had got that down there too
I have a few plants at home, if you want any PM

[mc55]

so sorry 

[cambourne7]

Oh Shades how sad!!

i am sending you a cyber hug !!

[asbean]

A big cyberhug from me too to everyone who has lost everything (or anything). When I look at our plot, which is all green and nothing else, with slugs and snails running around as if they own the place, I think of all those people who have worked their socks off and had the whole lot washed away.  Soul destroying. My thoughts go out to you all.

[angle shades]

  thank you/ shades xx

[saddad]

Snap Shades but only on an outdoor basket one so far......
 

[angle shades]

  the baskets on my shed got blight first

almost everyone on our lottie site has got blight in the greenhouse, or toms in greenhouse under water

still theres always next year, touch wood / shades x

[flossie]

tthink that the ones in my greenhouse have got blight too
am really sad as they were the special plants that i got from Simpsons
Summer will not the the same without our own toms

[MrsKP]

Summer    

No sign of blight here ............. yet ........ but no sign of toms either !

Well, I think I can find 3 fruit.  Might brave the elements in a mo and see if I can spot any more.

I really do feel for you if you are losing you toms too Shades, I keep trying to think of the day when we look at our green plots again and say to a newbie" I remember the year when!!!" XX Jeannine

There have been a few blight warnings here but I don't think my toms will come to much anyway. The greenhouse ones have been neglected and the outdoor ones don't seem to be growing at all.
