Home Guard Association ?
« on: Friday 18 September 20 16:48 BST (UK) »
I have been sent a spoon by my cousin. He found it in his mum's "stuff". Our dads were brothers, but my dad died in 1987.

It's tea spoon size, with a picture of a motorbike on the front.

On the back it is  engraved H G Trials 1955 Mr G Williams ( my dad was Gordon Williams )

Another family member seems to think there was a Home Guard Motorbike club ( Cheltenham area ), this would explain the HG. Does anyone know anything about this club / association ?
