truffy Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I think you'll find that's clotted cream? And, yes, that would also do nicely! (As a side note, and not wanting to go OT, when I first met my wife she was convinced that a cream tea involved that nasty canned stuff, because that's what she'd had a Kew Gardens. A bit of clotted cream soon put her right!) 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I popped in the shop when they returned and explained about dj models situation as the owner had been away when this announcement was made the price did not reflect on it and they didn’t know if you care to look at the same loco now on eBay you will find it at £129.95 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Phil Parker Posted June 18, 2019 Administrators Share Posted June 18, 2019 Fair point. I think we need to return to DJM now. For the moment I suspect that means the thread will whither but I'm sure there are plenty of other things to talk about elsewhere on RMweb.

RMweb Gold tomparryharry Posted June 19, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 19, 2019 Thread drift is somewhat expected in a 'slow news' period. I did consider continuing with the 'apple pie & cream' scenario a bit further, but it's probably non-productive. Once the debacle had slowed down, I only visited here to see if the austerity thread(s) had picked up again. I'm nothing, if not, optimistic. I have a great deal of sympathy for fellow modellers who have been caught up in this. However, the paucity of conspiracy theorists mean the thread has run it's course.

"Nothing to see here, move along". Colonel K. Knutt. Apollo 21 chief pilot & sanitary engineer. I don't think we've seen much of conspiracy theories in this thread (as yet?) and we don't really need any as we have the basic facts. What we do know is that DJM has gone into voluntary liquidation and is in the hands of a liquidator. Some folk have seen a listing of the company's assets (which seemingly don't amount to much) plus the question of disputed assets and that's about it. We haven't got the faintest idea what will happen in respect of the disputed assets or indeed whether or how that dispute will be settled. We haven't got any facts about where the money has gone or indeed how much money there actually was to have gone. We don't know the state of any part completed work on CADs or even who might or might not own them and we don't know who any creditors are with the exception of those who put in crowdfunding money. No conspiracy just a company in liquidation for whatever reason(s). Edwardian's post above amply sums up the situation in respect of DJM model projects; it is an ex-company as far as trading is concerned, and it is being liquidated. 2 13 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
