The first train from London to Paris on 14 Nov is the 12:30 - I
always suspected that a truly 'overnight' move from Waterloo would be
a little ambitious to say the least.

Is that definite? If so I have a £59 day return on the first public
service
out of St Pancras International - bargain. I was assuming the earlier
trains might have been fully booked.

Deduced from online booking engine. The 12:30 is showing fully booked
for some categories of business/first class, consistent with VIP
getting the best seats...

I managed to get 2 Leisure Select 1st singles on the 12:30 departure at (I
think) at £79.50 each. Only downside is we can't use the Eurostar Lounge at
Kings Cross (if it will even be open on that day) but it's a great deal
considering we're on the first St Pancras-Paris service. Plenty of Leisure
Select availability the next day coming back.
