At a Guess...


OK, so I stole this from Shannon - who stole it from RumourQueen (thanks RQ for your awesome poll skillz!)

I was having a good look at the chart, on Shannon's blog, and it occured to me that looking at these numbers, and comparing with the days left til our LID (22Feb)... there is a very possible chance we COULD see Mini before Christmas! I know, I'm being ridiculously silly, "hoping" - especially knowing how unpredictable cCaA is - but here's what I was thinking.

According to the poll, 107 files were allocated (of course, there were a lot more than that world-wide, that don't read RQ, and didn't vote) between 13 - 22 Jan. At a guess, CcAa may get through til the 26th or 27th next month. But then there is virtually nothing logged til 6 Feb. So one could assume that they could get through to, anywhere from 6-13 Feb, in Aug (if they continue to allocate). Then in Sept, through til about the 19th Feb? And in Oct, to about the 26th Feb?.... Meaning and OCTOBER referral for us?!!! I've thought for a long time, that Mini would be born in March. (Only coz my birthday is in March, and I thought they'd be really cool!) That would make her 8 months in Oct - maybe that's a bit young, going on recent referrals? I also think she'll be in Guangdong. Don't know why, but I've thought that for a couple of years, now.

All completely hypothetical, and based on minute world wide figures, from one website. OK - it's not sounding all that convincing is it?!!! I'd settle for anything in 2008! Obviously the sooner the better, but the CcAa has proven, it won't be hurried!

We see exactly what you are saying and we came to the same conclusion: You're sitting smack dab on top of an October referral according to the data. That would be a huge step up in days referred but the actual number of referrals points to October. Wow... Hey, none of this follows rules any of us control but we like the way you think!

It makes sense - here's hoping and praying it's true!

I totally think your logic about your referral is quite possible. I was just looking at the polls this afternoon (for my friend who has a March LID) and I came up with similiar numbers to you!!
Hang in there. It is your year!
