anyone ever use Awesomehost.co.uk?

have any good or bad experience of it?

Never heard of them but I would never trust a host that calls them self that . It sounds like a teenager decided to start a hosting company.

It doesn't seem to bad, but nope - never used it..

i was hosted by a place called reliable host

they were not very reliable as it turns out

I suggest http://www.servint.com

Don't use less than 512MB of guaranteed RAM. 1GB is a good amount, but what site do you plan to run on it?

I use 227 MB RAM for mine. If I need to go up, its a simple press of a button. I have more than 60 domains and my admin forum gets pretty active some days and its enough I have 171 MB for my MySQL VPS. I never have to adjust that!

That's a fairly low and unrecommended number. Just using cPanel alone can usually take up about 256MB of RAM. Your server will explode if you get a traffic burst from a site like Digg (not literally, maybe, but it will definitely go offline and possibly get damaged.)
