we didn't concrete our posts in, our tunnel has metal base plates. This way it counts as a temporary building, as we needed (agricultural) planning permission (because of its size and it sits on section 75 = agricultural use land only = land).
My OH did all the work himself (with the help of a min digger for these holes), and a good number of teas/coffee and cake from me (!), we put the polythene on between the two of us on a very calm early morning, then tightened it when it was really hot at lunchtime, so it was stretched very well. First tunnel instructions are great.
We get strong winds here too, no damage whatsoever and it has been up for almost four years. When it snows we brush the snow off every day, or as soon as it gets to about 20 cm deep. Same for the fruitcage, it did get damaged last year, but the tunnel has been ok so far, but it looks a it scary if you get inside when it has a deep layer of snow on top!
