Part 2 Settling in

As Joe settled in to his role in the Home Guard he became extremely popular among the men and locals to. Forever poking fun at their pompous Captain and generally keeping spirits up. Around Easter a moral boosting party was planned. The men talked of nothing else and conversation often drifted to who they would invite. Frazer and Jones were discussing this and Joe joked saying Blimey it will be grab a granny night. Young Pike asked Joe for his advice on who to take. Joe trying not to laugh told him to ask his Uncle . As for Joe himself barmaids and housewives were secretly hoping he'd ask them. He hadn't actually decided yet. That afternoon the platoon were involved in taking toys to the local orphans hut. Among the helpers was a pretty blonde girl called Amy.
