He could have been at an alumni event 5 years prior to GoF.  He could
have made a trip to revisit his old stomping grounds before leaving for
Egypt.  Various things he could have been doing.

Think about it this way.  If Bill graduated 5 yrs prior to GoF, then
Charlie must have graduated the year before Harry et al arrive at
Hogwarts.  Yet, Gryffindor hadn't won the House Cup in 7(?) yrs and
hadn't won the Quidditch Cup in 8 yrs from PoA (I think).  If Charlie
was such an all-star Quidditch player, why would they have lost the cup
all those years while he was playing for them?
