This amateur home movie compilation in the Hayes collection contains footage of family and friends enjoying summer in the garden and scenes from a children's birthday party. The film opens in a domestic garden where pet rabbits and a hamster roam around on a lawn. Children’s feet can be seen as they play with their pets. An elderly woman in a flamboyant, flowery hat is sitting in a deckchair in a garden. A young woman in a sundress smiles at camera. A boy in short trousers and tie poses for the camera. Three children of different ages play with a garden hose, then on a slide. A woman (possibly the mother), dressed in a smart suit and beige gauze hat, joins them at the slide. The children play badminton. There is a portrait of two young children smiling. A young girl poses wearing dental braces on her teeth, dressed in a rose and circle print sundress. The young boy is swinging a racket wildly in the background. The father, sporting a thin, pencil moustache, holds one daughter in her swimsuit and has his other arm around an older daughter. The father and his wife pose for camera, she dressed in a sleeveless, knee length, pattern print pencil dress. There are various shots of children sliding into a paddling pool. A small child is curled up on a sun lounger. Two teenage girls are seated on striped deckchairs. One child is playing up to the camera. She sticks her tongue out. A woman, possibly wearing a maternity dress, is in a garden. The father in a casual open neck shirt and sunglasses is seated in the garden and holds up a child’s toy to camera. Two girls are skipping. The father jumps into and interrupts one child’s skipping game. Again, we see the girls skipping together. Different children of varied ages are playing in the garden. The father is lounging in the sunshine. The final interior shots document a birthday party. Young children in party hats are seated at a round dining table filled with party food. A woman and two older children serve them more food.
