That sounds like great advice.
Plan the Christmas period and either side chase the snow.

Do they do decent pop on the ski train?

No idea, we take it with us.

Leave it as the 18th. My holiday starts when the first cork pops on the train!

No, this is just a clip I found on YouTube.

From previous experience sleep doesn't come easily on the Eurostar! So not counting that night as a sleep.

89 days till I'm off to Meribel

And to get down from there you can either ski down the red Bleuets into Le Lac, or go back down to Les Brevieres via the blue Rhododendron which flows into the blue Melezes and then into the blue Myrtilles.

You can also ski down to Le Lac via blues, Rhododendron turning off right onto Petit Col.

Bleuets used to be a blue slope, it was reclassified as red in 2004 (looking through my collection of Espace Killy piste maps!).
