Red Letter Days

[MargeB]

What went wrong with this company?

[Pinotage]

Who knows. What seems to have happened is that they took the money from their customers but haven't paid their suppliers. What happened to that money we can speculate on.

[MargeB]

Excuse me if I get a bit gleeful, but she was ever so smug on the telly, that lady. I bet the Dragon's Den rejects are feeling less sore now!

[WoWo]

They have just filmed a new series of Dragons Den which will be shown later this year, will be funny to see how smug she is now we know just a few weeks later he company went bust.

I read in the paper that there are charities (those ones that offer animal adoptions etc) which have not received their money.

Don`t you think it is likely that we will never see the

Dragon`s Den which has been filmed recently?

I recorded Trevor MacDonald`s programme from Friday 30th. September and have only just watched it.  The downfall would seem to be massive overspending - probably including her own lifestyle.  The investment she made on Dragons Den did not materialise.  I do not think I am alone in thinking that her success as quoted on that programme was a flash-in-the-pan whereas the others seemed to have a proven track record.  She was not alone in that respect   B & Q for instance are recognised for their business build up but after selling out, Mr. Q. opened a very modest retail outlet locally which only survived a few months.
