Description

Holiday scenes from the Fisher family. The film opens with scenes in the back garden of the family home in East Didsbury. Mr Fisher uses ladders to make an elaborate construction of monkey bars and the boys have fun climbing all over them. We then see the family on holiday at Glanrafon Farm in Anglesey with family friends Alan and Arlene and their children. We see them having a picnic, visiting a livestock market, swimming and playing with kittens. Next we see them on holiday in Morecambe. The boys have fun in the sea playing in a dinghy and swimming and they go on a boat ride on the Lancaster Canal on the 'Lady Fiona' with their grandparents. In North Wales they have a trip on the Talyllyn Railway. At Dolgoch Falls station we see a farmer in his tractor ploughing a field. Mr Fisher and the boys play in the sea, we see them swimming and surfing.
