Jaysus lads! I think I'll do the same. You have me scared now! How could all those wonderful trainers I've met overlook this!!!!!!!!

I know so. The certification requirement looks at nil wind (or 7 kts in some older cases). There is nothing stopping you going with a min speed schedule in a strong crosswind .. you just need to understand that there is an elevated risk of control loss if you have a critical failure.
Could you tell me which regulation you are referring to? I think I need to look it up!!!
PPRUNE is scary. All it does is show you how ignorant you are and how much you thought you knew............
