When will the domain drop?

[Systreg]

There is a .org.uk domain I might be interested in, the renewal date below from the Who-Is passed a month ago and it doesn't look like it's been renewed yet, what date will this domain actually become available to reg if it is dropped?

Domain Name Deletion Dates for Nominet UK Domains

Cheers for moving it, RJS, and thanks for the link, Keys.

Tried that tool but it doesn't give a drop date, just gives me a link to the Who-Is which I already know, is that because the name is not yet suspended? I edited my original above post to add where the Who-Is says:

Registration status:
Renewal required.

Is that tool for suspended names only?

Just enter the expiry date to get drop date NOT the domain name

The domain should drop on either "22-02-2009" or "15-02-2009".

Cheers Redbird, worked that time, same result as Gold Frog gave, cheers all, better bookmark that site before I lose it.

.....better bookmark that site before I lose it.

The link is also at the top of this site - "calculate UK domain drop dates", if you hadn't noticed it. I doubt admin is likely to remove it.

@ Redbird, no, I didn't see the link at the top, saved to faves now anyway.

Another drop question, this time a .co.uk, I would love to get this one, but I don't understand what's going on in the Who-is with the suspended bit.

I read a topic earlier where it was about a suspended registration, but in that case, I believe it was a company that had closed down and Nominet had dropped the name as a result, in this instance, it's not a company name, but a UK individual, so why the suspended bit when it's due to drop on December 14th or 21st, could it be to do with the current drop problems Nominet is experiencing?

All uk domains go suspended 30 days after expiry if not renewed, EVERY drop on day 92/99 will be a suspended domain, if it isn't it won't drop.

Cheers again Redbird, that explains it then, nice one, hopefully I can grab one or both when they drop.

it's due to drop on December 14th or 21st

I missed that one , it was stleger.co.uk, I checked it in the early hours last night before I went to bed, I completely forgot about it today, only just remembered a few minutes ago, went to check and someone has registered it

And the one I was on about in the first post on this topic, I forgot to stick it on my notepad and can't remember what the bloody domain is now, FFS

You would have had no chance of manually registering stleger.co.uk, it was caught by DropSystem so a catcher, would have been registered within seconds of it dropping. You would only have had a chance of getting it if you booked it with another drop catcher and have almost certainly gotten it if you had your own catching setup.
