    might do if only because my current domain is a crap uk.com and .uk may be better. How much are they offering it for?

        Just looked into I don't have the co.uk domain so looks like I can't get the .uk domain. I may just change my company name

          Why did you pick a company name you couldn't get the domain for

            I've never used my .co.uk domain, just the .com.

            It seems to me domain names aren't that important in this day and age; if anybody is going to search for your company they're going to use Google, so you're better off doing things to get yourself up the google search results.
            Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

              Honestly, sometimes I just get something into my head, probably autistic or stupid!

              I did think I could buy the .com as it was owned but not used, but each year I email some stupid cow in Australia and ask if I can buy it and each year she says she is going to do something with it. Which reminds me its the time of year

                it's such a crap domain that its not even a domain!

                <your company name>.uk.com is a sub domain of uk.com

                  I know its a sub-domain but calling it crap depends on what you want to do it. SEO it's crap but that's not important to me.

                  But thanks for the link anyway.
