Derek " Killer" Hales and Peter Shaw will be the guests of NWKA at The Pavilion, Bat & Ball, Wrotham Rd, DA11 0QP on Thursday 24th January , 8pm start. This will be an " Adults only " Q & A ....or as BDL said, " Jean, bring your ear muffs"! A 3rd former player's attendance is awaiting confirmation & an update will be given later.
All NWKA members welcome, non members can join on the night - adults( over 18's) £6, over 60's £2. Memberships valid until end of July and all members' names will be entered into the free end of season draw for a shirt signed by the playing squad and manager.
Usual raffle with some Charlton memorabilia included in the prizes.
This is a new venue for the Group and we're hoping that Gravesend /Medway area based Addicks will attend in numbers.
Any queries etc, please contact Jean on 07757 661403 or at jeanhuelin@sky.com
See you there !

Just thought it might get some interest going.
Mea culpa.
Thought I'd blown this one....
Whilst Bexley Park Sports & Social Club , very close to the A2 , is the usual choice of venue, members (and Gravesend based c'tee members) have indicated that we should not forget their needs...and for those without transport, BSSC is difficult to reach from Gravesend by bus/train.
We have staged events in that area before, using The Manor Hotel, Singlewell for several Q & As , notably when we welcomed Curbs but the cost of this venue is now prohibitive.
So, having been offered The Pavilion at a very good rate, we decided to try once more to attract our friends from that area. Kent CC supporters will remember that the county used to play at the Bat & Ball Ground some years ago so it will be good to revisit an old haunt.
We are hopeful of a good turn out as future consideration to organising events in the area may be affected so please try to give us, Derek & Peter your support. Thanks.
Something I omitted earlier was that all profits from NWKA events this season will be donated to Demelza House.
Wasn't going to change it anyway !!
Entry to this event is now free ! It has been decided that on this occasion, NWKA welcome all Addicks free of charge - although we hope you will buy a couple of books of raffle tkts each if you decide to join us !
See you there !
Wondering whereabouts you live ? maybe we couod get someone local to you to give you a lift ?
Message me if you think it's a possibility, please.
All the very best to you all.
Christian.
Does the event kick off bang on 8 Fanny ?
Weather & icy conditions permitting , this event will take place as originally advertised with Derek & Peter as our guests. Should there be any problems or amendments to the evening, details will be posted on here and if possible , on the OS.
Please endeavour to join us for what should be an entertaining evening with free entry to all.
Buckshee - apologies for not seeing your post earlier, but yes, the meeting is due to start promptly at 8pm. Hope to see you there.
As always, just ask for Fanny.....
Tonight's meeting has now been re confirmed following the thaw and Derek will be in full flow at The Pavilion tonight from 8pm.
Unfortunately, Peter Shaw has had to bow out due to illness and we wish him well in his recovery.
The good news is that Valley favourite, Phil Warman has agreed to take his place even though he is recovering from an operation on his drinking hand....seriously !
Phil was known as the comedian of the early 70's team so, together with Killer's legendary humour, we should be in for a highly entertaining evening.
I look forward to meeting up with other Lifers tonight at this very special event .
Let's be 'avin you !!!!
