UPDATE:

Due to the lack of numbers, Toni and I have decided to postpone this cruise to a later date. We feel that having a cruise a week before Christmas will be too much for some people. We understand that most people will be doing their last minute Christmas shopping on this day, due to the fact that it is the last weekend before Christmas.

The cruise will still go ahead as planned, but will be around Mid January instead. Hoepfully by then, people will have recovered from the silly season, and we will have a record number of memebers attending this cruise.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, and we look forward to seeing you at the next cruise.

Details of the new Date will be posted up soon.

I agree with Mil. You'll probably get heaps more confirmations towards the end of this week.

Besides, I can't make it in January - too many weddings and bachelor parties :D

Please don't postpone it unless you definitely can't get any more numbers.

Personally I agree too...people never make up their mind until last minute (like me). Doesn't matter when you have cruises or meets, you'll never get a lot of responses in a poll, and even if only 10 cars go it still can be a good cruise. Last yr for this same cruise we only had about 9-10 cars and it still turned out to be a really good day.

btw I reckon we should have more mini meets...heaps of people usually rock up to those, and I don't have to worry about being left behind or lost in a cruise. :)

I'm with alex, i can't make it in january besides i get my roster 6 weeks in advance at work so i can't even plan to have the day off, not everyone works 9-5 monday to friday either you know so makin it on a weekend doesn't mean everyone can make it :roll:

I can understand that you guys are trying to get more numbers but postponings cruises is happening more and more these days, i wasnt aware that there was a quota for this sort of thing! like naomi said even if there is a small number of cars it doesn't mean that it won't be any fun!
