Fellowship of The King Film & Tapas Evening The Fellowship of The King begins a new season of Film and Tapas Evenings at their premises in Pasaje San Miguel, Nerja on Friday 7th October at 7.30pm with “Wildflower.” This powerful film centres on a creatively gifted college student, Chloe Moray, who takes refuge from the traumas of a difficult childhood in her art. However, whilst at college she begins to experience a terrifying dream that recurs night after night; so real is the dream and so vivid its detail that Chloe begins to wonder if, rather than merely being a dream, it might be the suppressed memory of a violent crime she may have witnessed as a little girl but blocked out from her conscious mind. Her search to find answers unfolds as a totally believable “cold-case” investigation that sends her on a journey which forces her to confront her past trauma and brings her into contact with a young man who teams up with her to try to find the key to unlock a decade-old unsolved crime. As they get closer to the truth the authorities refuse to believe them and call into question Chloe’s sanity. The film is well scripted, well acted and manages to hold the attention from beginning to end as it has a potent mix of suspense, drama, plot twists, friendship, hope, despair and surprises at every turn before reaching its dramatic finale. The Royal British Legion was formed in 1921 in response to a need for support for Servicemen and women and their families who were involved in WW1. For over 90 years it has provided a wide range of care and welfare assistance to the ex-service community. Throughout that time it has helped the families of those who have lost their lives serving us, and supported all members of the military community - past and present. November is the month when we are universally reminded of the sacrifice made by our troops. It is when we come together to remember with gratitude those who protect us, those who have died in carrying out this duty and all those who have suffered life changing injuries or conditions. In Nerja we start our Poppy Appeal on the 16th October with the Poppy Walk. Anyone can come along and join in, and it is a WALK not a race and there are no prizes -just the satisfaction of knowing that you have done something worthwhile. If you are interested in joining us you can obtain sponsorship forms from Dorothy Allen or Dave Graves. (info below) Our next event is the Poppy Ball at the Caves Restaurant in Maro on 11th November. This year we are pleased to announce that it will be a joint event with the members of Los Romanes and Torre del Mar. Again, it is open to anyone, you don’t have to be British or ex- Service, we welcome everyone. 22 THE MARKET PLACE This is a psychological thriller with a difference as it succeeds in setting the viewer off on an their own emotional rollercoaster ride. Can we hit rock bottom and still get up again? Is there any hope when we’re alone, confused, opposed and scared? Beneath all of the negative emotions “Wildflower” carries the thought that even in our darkest moments we are never as alone as we feel. This highly recommended movie give us more than entertainment - it leaves us with hope. Do join us; all are welcome; for more information call James on 952 969 058 or email fotk.spain@gmail.com Royal British Legion - Nerja Branch LIVE ON - TO THE MEMORY OF THE FALLEN AND THE FUTURE OF THE LIVING. The evening starts with canapes and drinks on the terrace (weather permitting), three course meal with wine, and dancing to the Flying Dolphins, and a superb raffle. The cost is 35 euros (as it has been for the last 12 years!!!) As this is a joint event, tickets may go quickly so don’t delay. If you would like to come please contact one of the people mentioned below. Following the Ball on Sunday 13th November we will be holding our Remembrance Day event. This is held in the Lower Salon of the Caves Restaurant, starting at 11.40 am. This is si<strong>mp</strong>ly an occasion to join together and give our thanks for the freedoms we have been able to enjoy and to hope for peace in the future. It is not a religious service but in the past has been a moving and emotive tribute to our brave Servicemen and Women. There will be a lunch afterwards, in the Caves Restaurant, and if you wish to attend it is essential to book beforehand - by contacting Vera. (details below) The cost is 16 euros. Although Nerja is a small branch, in the past few years we have been able to send a very respectable donation to the Poppy Appeal and of course we hope to do so again this year. This is a very worthwhile cause and we must not allow it to be forgotten. The work of the Legion must continue, so we ask you to help us raise our funds, whether it is by coming to any of our lunches, events or just popping a little into our charity tins. We thank you for your generosity. And finally, remember, we do not glorify or celebrate war, we just pick up the pieces.
