Description

Shows a group of elderly people holding up signs - 'Use yer scone...', 'Cheerio to Cheerios!', 'That just takes the cake!', 'Bring back plates!' and 'Doggy bags are dog gone!'. The sign which reads 'Bring back plates!' has had the word 'plates' replacing the crossed out word 'Buck!'. This possibly refers to the rugby player Buck Shelford. Most of the elderly women and men are standing up. One woman is holding an empty plate. A woman and man are sitting down in chairs. Refers to the kiwi tradition of 'bring a plate' being under threat at workingmen's and other private clubs because of fears over food poisoning.
