My Tomato plant leaves at the very top are curling badly. Why is this and can you give me a remedy

In my (limited!) experience with tomatoes Alan, I think it's pretty common and unless there are any other issues with them they should be fine. If they're exposed to a lot of direct sun they can get a bit frazzled so if they're right next to greenhouse/conservatory glass that may be all that's wrong. There are lots of really knowledgeable tomato growers on here though so I'm sure you'll get some better advice!
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Usually due to excess heat in the GH eg. 80-100 degrees. Ventilate with the door and windows open, water well if the pots, bags or soil is dry. You must NEVER allow the soil/compost to dry out even for an hour or two or your Toms will split.
