here's a funny one for you all

so I got the co.uk but Nominet have reserved the .uk ! Really?

The rights of registration ended this morning so the domain will be a part of the release next week.

Yes, reserved for next weeks release. The deadline to exercise your .uk rights was this morning at 6am.

You might want to remove your attachment because as found out a few weeks ago, someone will register it with ill intentions!

I think the point of the post is that the OP caught/registered the co.uk today so it is not that he wanted to exercise his rights (and was too late as the 6am deadline had passed), but the .uk is still part of the ror release process even though the co.uk (that had the rights) dropped, presumably after 6am.
