Whilst I agree with most of your wisdom, Dave, I have to take you to task on your fresh snow prediction.
This is clearly a fantasy - are you planning to ski on December 3rd?
First snow is never on a Friday - it is always a Tuesday or Wednesday - this is well documented.
First snow falls from late afternoon, not early morning.
Whilst I would like to say November 29/30th - 6/7th December is more likely at resort level.

Ha ha, just found this, it actually snowed on the 4th, at 8.00am!

Split between us! Not bad for a 3 week ahead prediction for both of us Dave.
they should dump all these weather stations and just ask us next year!
But ...
I'll give you the win on the morning start :mrgreen:

I'd get going quite soon Iceman if I were you.
Boxing day perhaps? You don't want to get stuck on the way to the airport and miss your flight.

I could also have a puncture, or traffic, or snow, or forget my passport like last year, or my ski coat a couple of years ago :roll:
