This is another of those names, like whisky.uk, that I'm going to be watching closely at the end, when I expect stuff to kick off.

In my view, this is a really useful domain that should be worth lots. It's on £200. Are you kidding? I don't think there's anyway it won't rise to £2000+ on the final day, and as for the last half hour...

Well look what happened to whisky.

I think the problem with this one is people in the UK dont go on vacation, they go on holiday.

I really like this one and think it has great potential. Post Brexit this could be a useful marketing tool for attracting American tourists to the UK. Host it in the US ( as that where the target audience would be ) and I think it could perform very well.

Yes, like you Phil, I was thinking of how well it could become a go-to domain for US people planning a visit to the UK.

It is so basic and clear.

Vacation.

Where? What is says on the box:

UK

It could also be used in the UK with huge range of possibilities. Yes, we often say holidays, but in this day and age we fully understand vacation here in the UK too.

Anyway, we'll soon see how this one goes.

Well we are now in the last 45 minutes before the 'official close' so we will see what happens, I certainly found the discussion above interesting.

Think you could say that prediction came true:

Last hour: £243
Last half hour: £505
Finish: £2251

And in my opinion, this domain was worth every penny.
