That was sensible - NOT.

One of the nice things about Nominet is that they send you a PAPER registration certificate.

If you want to transfer the domain, all you do is fill it in, sign it, and send it back to them... job done.

As such, please feel free to all use my address to register your domains :-)

I had spotted that on ADLSGuide.org.uk a little while ago and
believe I signed up.

Could we not just change our addresses to the wrong one?

For instance, my domain is registered to an old address (I never
got around to updating it).

:

Ummmmm, errrr, I just went on to check this and noted that
another domain I had been after a couple of years ago was now
available. So I just ordered it. Cheers, Robert !!! :)

Anyway, I was able to be billed to my actual home address, but I
carefully entered my previous address as the registration
address because of this very issue above.
