Travel date is December 3 +4 - is it about 2 weeks notice that the unions have to give ?
Dosnt appear to be that many tickets left for my dates, but i dont want to go through all the delay/repay shennanigans again either, guess will have to wait it out and if there are strikes announced / or no strikes and tkts sold out, have to go up in car..

Pretty sure it's 2 weeks.
The other problem is train cancelled at short notice1 -
Yep its two weeks. There's a consolidated list of all the strike dates here which is updated regularly:

If you are travelling on Avanti West Coast, they'll only release tickets for weekend dates a few days beforehand:
