Eurostar moving to St Pancras

An email has just appeared in my mailbox confirming that from mid-November next year, Eurostar will shift its operations from Waterloo to St Pancras. Not only does this mean shorter journey times between London and Paris, but from a selfish point of view it's more convenient for us to get to St Pancras from Liverpool Street.

Toni and I are planning to go to Paris at the end of May for the French Open tennis (tickets are ridiculously cheap - just 21 Euros for outside courts, and not much more for the show courts), and spend a week in the French capital getting to know it a bit better after our whistlestop 24-hour stop a couple of years ago. With return tickets as little as £60 each, it goes without saying we'll be going by Eurostar...
