Description

Footage of a pleasure trip on the Mersey. A group board the ferry and we see the boat leaving. Men stand around on the deck and joke with each other, before posing in a larger group for the camera. One of the men starts a sing-song and some seated women join in. Back on land, they pose again for the camera, and the film ends with somebody feeding seagulls from the ferry.
