Unfortunately I use none of those mirrors. So uk2.net couldn't be the
reason.

Currently this is my mirrorlist:

Server = http://mir.archlinux.fr/$repo/os/$arch
Server =
http://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/ftp.archlinux.org/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://archlinux.limun.org/$repo/os/$arch
Server =
http://ftp.spline.inf.fu-berlin.de/mirrors/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ftp.archlinux.org/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://ftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://mirror.archlinux.no/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch

If I recall correctly syncing failed at least from these mirrors,
probably from some more:

Server = http://mir.archlinux.fr/$repo/os/$arch
Server =
http://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/ftp.archlinux.org/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch

This mirror worked:
Server = http://mirror.archlinux.no/$repo/os/$arch
