Tim Parkes was three when his parents were killed in a train crash and he went to live with his aunt May, first in New Cross and then to Walworth, where the living was cheaper. They managed splendidly - and then came the war. Tim Parkes became Gunner Parkes and Aunt May spent most of her nights in the Walworth air raid shelters with Tim keeping an eye on her whenever he was able.

When he got posted to Suffolk he wasn't too pleased - Suffolk was country, not like London at all. But in fact there were a lot of things about Sheldham that reminded him of home - the Walworth evacuees for a start. Those of them that weren't creating havoc in the Suffolk village were creating havoc in Tim's life. Minnie Beavers - ex-Camberwell - was 15, pert, pretty, and wildly in love with Tim. She was determined to inveigle him into marriage the minute she was old enough. Tim was equally determined to escape and choose his own girl.

By the time Tim had gone away to fight the war and Minnie had joined the WAAF, a great many things had changed in both their lives.

I thoroughly enjoyed this, Mary Jane Staples has a wicked sense of humour as does her characters,. I lived in Lewisham and went to East Street Market so really feel at home with these books, can’t wait to read the next one .

Another brilliant read

I am a very big Mary Jane Staples fan and have read all of her books. I have also listened to all the spoken word books that have been available at the local library and loved listening to the original reader Terry Wale, he had the perfect voice for reading this book and those of the Adams Family sagas. I can honestly say that the narrators voices on this production are absolute rubbish. Madeleine Lesley doesn’t differentiate between the characters.

The voices by the reader are rubbish

Struggled finishing the book. Maybe due it being one of her earlier books just really confusing.

Very Hard To Follow
