Just took the van out for a little run as its been sat for a couple of weeks. Headed off down the A66 (Scotch Corner to Penrith road) just for few miles and a spot of lunch. Flipping Heck its gusty out there! First time I think we have experienced big gusty crosswinds like that and it wasnt good! Take care if your up this way!

Not good at all Barry.. they've been known to rip awnings off RVs..
I have the T shirt and the brown stains to prove it
I’m the other side of the Pennines near BarnardCastle and I’m not heading your way unfortunately in the near future, certainly not in this wind anyway! If it’s bad down here, god knows what its like on the tops!
Our van I think is 25ft plus a scooter and 7ft6 wide. I had a similar issue. The turning is tight in the little village we live in and the drive is only just wide enough. I have to take both mirrors in, breath in and go for it. It’s a two man job to get it out! I defy anyone to have a tighter parking place than this!
Just check before you venture to the Orwell Bridge on A14 (if that's the one you are talking about), they do close it for high sided vehicles in bad wind (just in case you didn't know already).
Its Windy out there!
