Hi DCAL thank you for your analysis, I think it is a gret model ;0) would you mind posting the other one based on the last 3 updates as a trend basis - I would be interested to see how this would affect the prediction for me (Dec10).Thank you Jodie xx

This is based on DIAC staying at their current rate which is around 31.5 days processing per update.....so you could say a worst case scenario......

Note: Their is not actual science to this, this is just (as mentioned) based on the last 3 updates.
