Christmas dinner for 1975 was held at Loftus. This makes sense as it is where the little ones are, with their presents. The Christmas Tree was in the lounge room, and as seen here, before the distribution of presents.
The assembled diners. Clockwise, from left: Yvonne, Kelly, Peter, Lindsay, Dad, Barry, Carol, Mum and Michelle.
Michelle and Kelly with their guinea pigs. I don't recall if this was a Christmas present, or just an opportunity to photograph them. I am inclined towards the former.
The cage for the guinea pigs, one of whom is in the doorway to their "house", whereas the other is probably eating.
Michelle and Kelly with what must be Christmas presents.
Michelle showing her skill with tether tennis\ , which actually doesn't have much in common with tennis. Peter (her dad) and Peter's Dad watching. Michelle did go on to play tennis, including partnering with Adam Hills (TV personality now) for a while.
This doll's house is likely another present. Note the big screen TV in the lower right room - rather advanced for the time!
