    It wasn’t the last day. The last day was the 10th I believe and it was renewed on the 8th. As far as I could see it didn’t drop at all. It is showing as current registration ending in July 21 which I believe reflects that

    The domain I was after is andysworld.uk
    Just hoped I’d be able to catch it this time but it’s now pointing to an ad site with no clear way to try and buy it unfortunately

    It looks as though you played the waiting game, to obtain the name for the registration fee only...!!

    That's a dangerous game to play - for a domain name that you've been after for 6 years...!!

    If someone noticed your regular check, they will have known someone wanted the name - and have speculated the registration fee themselves - in the hope that you REALLY want the domain name...!!

    He had booked it with a couple of catchers I believe, dropped.uk being one of them.
