I hate to "me too", but "me too".

I'd love to be able to use coinbase but I'm UK only. I'm unlikely to get involved with Bitcoin until something like Coinbase allows UK bank accounts.

(having said all that I'm going to be buying very small quantities of Bicoin.)

You might want to check out localbitcoins.com - our online buying process is pretty fluid, and we have lots of sellers selling for UK bank transfer.

Second these guys, managed to find a seller and complete the transaction in under ten mins! Although was only a small amount.

Why Coinabase and not for example intersango? It used to be britcoin and has been around for quite some time.
