Charlie Oatway Testimonial Lunch

[greyseagull]

Anyone else heading over to the lunch today with players past and present to celebrate young Charles' career? Will be good to bump into some fellow NSC members.

A bit steep for my pocket, but have a good time.

Have a good day son. Drop in any leftovers on the way home.

Steep ? Its only £65 quid a head.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

65 quid is a bit much for a lunch.

 

[Beach Hut]

Far too much money in my view

You can eat in the 1901 for less!

A fantastic afternoon. Had my photo taken with Bobby Z and CMS who gave me some tips on my golf swing! Such a nice lad. Also had a great chat with Gary Stevens and Croftsy. The 'roast of Charlie Oatway' was hilarious and was the Q&A with Oatway, Micky Adams, Dennis Wise, Dave Beasant, Richard Carpenter and Barry Fry, who absolutely stole the show throughout, was also highly entertaining. He was swearing and telling all sorts of stories with chairmen and I don't think Darren Ferguson will be on his Xmas card list!!! Also had a dump in the cubicle next to Adams, which was nice. And lots of money raised for charity too. Nice that I went as a guest as well ;-)

Many people go?

 

[greyseagull]

Over 400, which was great.

 

[greyseagull]

Saying that I think it was nearer 500 as there were 47 tables of ten, so forget my last comment!

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

Did they run out of pies?

 

[greyseagull]

Ha! Didn't see any pies - although Guy Butters was there which probably explains that. Was also a nice touch that Elliott Bennett came down for it as well

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Good turnout TBF.

 

[greyseagull]

And Ian Hart called the Palace cheerleaders a bunch of sluts on stage. Brilliant.

 

[DanielT]

I got a recording of the q&a. It was very funny

 

[Super Steve Earle]

I could have sworn I started this very thread yesterday!!

 

[DanielT]

Sorry didn't see it. Tapatalk and NSC aren't good buddies at the mo so I haven't been on as much

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Sounds like a cracking day. Elliott Bennett tweeted he had dinner at The Pass South Lodge last night before heading down to Brighton. Good on him.

 

[Comedy Steve]

I was strangely nervous for this. Great turnout though.
