Description

A boys' parade on waste ground between blocks of flats with marching bands and banners followed by some tame deer in a country park, possibly Tatton. A group of children are seen jumping and swimming in a river then a car and motorcycle trade show with vehicles in various marquees with exhibitors from the North West. Rural scenes with ducks and ducklings on a river then an out door theatre concert in Edinburgh. After beach scenes we see a car rolling uphill at Croy Brae and a signpost for Moscow both of which are in Scotland. The film ends with a family stood in the front garden and two men in suits on the street.
