Must be some on the law of averages. Anyone able to explain the Scheme of Arrangement thing in words a thickie like me can understand?

As I understand it, we're gonna get just over £1 for each share held, some in Verizon stock, some cash. Yesterday my Vodafone holding with Selftrade was 'consolidated' at the rate of 6 new shares for each 11 held. And some Verizon shares duly dropped into my portfolio. And I duly sold them, being too lazy to do the research on whether they were worth holding on to. But no cash yet. Was the cash bit the'consolidation'?
Confused.
