Django: Error when calling the metaclass bases

Here is the error

TypeError: Error when calling the metaclass bases metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a derived class must be a (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases

The class in question within my models.py

class Business(models.Model, forms.Form):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=128)
    tel_no = models.CharField(max_length=11)
    address_ln1 = models.CharField(max_length=128)
    address_ln2 = models.CharField(max_length=128)
    city = models.CharField(max_length=64)
    county = GBCountySelect()
    postcode = GBPostcodeField()
    website = models.URLField(max_length=128)
# Logging Info
    slug = models.SlugField()
    date_added = models.DateField(auto_now_add=True)
    time_added = models.TimeField()
    added_by_user = models.CharField(max_length=64)
    last_edit_time = models.TimeField(auto_now=True)
    last_edit_date = models.DateField(auto_now=True)

The line I am getting the error on:

name = models.CharField(max_length=128)

But I (think) it means this one:

class Business(models.Model, forms.Form):

I'm not sure what it means exactly, how can I inherit my models from models.Model and forms.Form within the same class? Can I not pass two values when creating my class? If so how?

ANOTHER EDIT

All my imports
from django.db import models
from django import forms
from django.contrib.localflavor import generic
from django.contrib.localflavor.gb.forms import GBPostcodeField, GBCountySelect

This is the problem:

class Business(models.Model, forms.Form):

You're trying to inherit from Model and Form. You can't, and you shouldn't.

You can't because the metaclass of a derived class must be a (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases. Form has a metaclass:

__metaclass__ = DeclarativeFieldsMetaclass

Model also has a metaclass:

__metaclass__ = ModelBase

If you were to do this, you would need to set a metaclass which derives from both of those.

However, you shouldn't do this, because django has ModelForms, which exist to create forms that model models, saving you the trouble of the complexity here. Just stop inheriting from Form.
