This is where the confusion occured - since everything uses Catalyst::Model::*
I figured I should be naming my packages under the "Model" namespace, rather
than the "M" namespace. I knew aliases existed so you can access things via
either method, but I figured that the actual packages themselves should be
"model" and the "m" version was the alias - not the other way round!

It seems to be working now though,
thanks
