Description

Compilation reel of Taylor family domestic and leisure scenes. Family members enjoy fairground rides, and visits to the countryside. There are brief scenes in Liverpool city centre, family and friends in the garden, and camping scenes, with girls preparing food outdoors and cooking. At Christmas, family members sit by the fire and open presents; they also play games and musical instruments; a later scene sees several young women singing. There is a firework display, and winter scenes, with children out and about with their sledges.
