Glad they are doing the .co.uk in september - means I can go on holiday without the prospect of being glued to my laptop

"The auction registration will open on Monday, 4th July at 10am (UK) time which will allow you to register to take part in the auctions. To gain access to the registration page, you will need to click on this link Landrush Registration"

I assume they haven't opened it yet?

[Alien]

Cheers guys, just had an e-mail from them to say the first error msg I saw has now been replaced by a clearer page advising reg isn't open yet, which makes it clear to anyone else visiting.
