September .uk drop discussion

Got the following... i don't really know if they worth something:(

Heatpress.uk
FixMyCar.uk
TravelLink.uk
xpresso.uk
longtail.uk
discipleship.uk
ancor.uk
 
No spare cash, not a nom, and had really wanted to be prepared for this one. But I've identified 2 to hand reg at the earliest opportunity and optimistic about a catch via third party services. I'd be happy with a single domain worthy of development.

At first, I thought here we go again, gonna be the same names getting everything and was tempted to post something bitter about it, but where in life ISN'T this the case? We play the cards we've got, we play the hand we are dealt so good luck to all of you.
 
Intelligence.uk that is a bit special right there. Dominic Cummings would likely agree to pay you whatever from the common purse for that domain, and he'd hardly be the only interested party.

Since you're talking about it I hope you don't mind me prying, but what's happened that the cost of registration currently is an issue for you? did covid cripple your income?

Thanks for your concern. It's a long story I'd probably best not go into but don't know if it was you, always thinking it was you, but someone once said in here 'i became a domainer so I could actually watch my children grow up' and this is the same reason I got into it or stayed with it. It was the right decision on every front. All these years later and I've got just the 2, one Autistic 11 [like his father] who thinks I'm superman, and the other who also thinks I'm superman, who won herself a Scholarship to Private College and is last kid in her class standing studying for the Oxford/Imperial Maths entrance exam, the others have given up I'm recently told. It's not about if she gets in, it's about the fortitude I've tried to put into her that pleases me most. I'm despite my own troubles eternally grateful for all this. I come from very humble beginnings.

But whilst I'm here if anyone's got any research-related work needs doing, I'm cheap, my grammar isn't the greatest but I'm an incisive analyst so feel free to PM. Cheers.

You should be proud. Look at your children. Think of what you did, how you stood the course for them. It's impossible not to respect.
 
Guys thank you very much including PM's and will be getting back. Means a lot. I'm a very shy and guarded person but what Acorn [members] did for my domaining always causes me to think about newbies and sometimes you got to share a bit to get the message that matters to you across.

Moments like this don't happen every day in domaining and there's some genuine quality falling from the heavens at the moment. Dropcatchers are in a realm of their own. Handreg the domainers preferred route, backorder, but I think auctions are sensational value in moments like this. There's no excuse for not getting something worth your while. When the market's flooded, that's the time to buy.
 
Looking at the Crazy.uk clap.co.uk on DL right now, I don't see any wayin.co.uk. It's fantasy.uk stuff and whoever.uk thinks I'd transfermoney.co.uk to betonit.co.uk have a better chance of seeing fatherchristmas.uk (or SantaClaus.uk).

It's sad.uk, but there are no blockbusters.uk. It's all a Mindbubble.co.uk.

Mark my words, you could workaway.uk at the lists for SevenDays.uk, but it's Bankrupts.co.uk territory. There'd be a better chance of revenues.uk with a FootballTipster.uk.

Remorse.co.uk awaits.

A touching post. It sounds like you've put your all into being there for your family and giving your kids the best start in life. You have much to be proud of :).
 
Problem resolved, deleted old ip addresses

Had been building out a script for catching, it looked as though there was probably some mis-coding. Need to leave it to the professionals i think.


yes that would be me. anyone one want any help?
