Children of Artemis is dissolved

The rumour that Children of Artemis Limited has been dissolved as a company has been confirmed by Companies House.

I have just had an email from Philip May of Companies House Contact Centre saying:

"Name & Registered Office:
CHILDREN OF ARTEMIS LIMITED
17B KING STREET
CASTLE DOUGLAS
DUMFRIES & GALLOWAY
DG7 1AA
Status: Dissolved 07/05/2010
Company No: SC261100

Accounting Reference Date: 31/12
Last Accounts Made Up To: 31/12/2006 TOTAL EXEMPTION SMALL
Last Return Made Up To: 18/12/2006

I can confirm that the above company was struck off and dissolved on 7 May 2010.

This was because we believed the above company to be neither carrying on business nor in operation. We may take this view if, for example:

He has not received documents (e.g. Accounts/Annual Returns) from a company that should have sent them to us; or mail that we have sent to a company's registered office is returned undelivered.

More information about this striking off procedure can be found on our website at the following link:

I am still not sure what this will mean for Children of Artemis in its everyday business - it still seems to be operating as before and the person I spoke to seemed unaware that the company had dissolved. In fact, they said they thought it must be a computer error.
