-Richards Bros' Cardigan HQ, 5.30am. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:15 | |
-The working day has begun. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
-One of the owners -is Marteine Richards. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
-He and his staff -are preparing for another busy day. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:26 | |

-..to open up -and bring the books out. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
-That's a ten-minute job. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:34 | |
-I check if the drivers are in. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
-They're good, fair play. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
-We don't have to chase them. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
-They've all gone out -by about 7.30am. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:46 | |
-No wonder it's such an early start. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:50 | |
-They run almost 100 vehicles. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
-The services linking villages -and towns is their bread and butter. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
-We serve Pembrokeshire, -Ceredigion and Carmarthenshire. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:03 | |
-We try to do our best for them. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
-One of the daily services -is the Cardi Bach. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
-It links towns and villages -between Cardigan and New Quay. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
-On Cardigan's Finch Square, -Maldwyn is ready for the off. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
-It's busy between eight and nine, -schools, colleges, the lot. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:29 | |
-This is my main route, -seven days a week. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
-It's ten, eleven hours a day. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
-You know, it's a long day. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
-It might be a long day... | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
-..but passengers would be lost -without the Cardi Bach. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:47 | |
-Maldwyn is as important as his bus. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
-How are you, Tom? OK? | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
-Where to? New Quay? | 0:02:54 | 0:02:55 | |
-New Quay it is then. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
-A trip to the seaside. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
-Whitland in Carmarthenshire -is the home of Taf Valley Coaches. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:15 | |
-The wheels are also turning there. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:19 | |
-Clive Edwards owns the company. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
-He has a packed rota to oversee. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
-He has a packed rota to oversee. - -How are you? | 0:03:28 | 0:03:29 | |
-Yes. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:31 | |
-When can you get it? | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
-32. OK, thanks. Ta-ra. Ta-ra. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:38 | |
-Here, Mal. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:40 | |
-This is the daily running board. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
-Service buses, and schools here. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:49 | |
-The school wants an extra bus -for Thursday afternoon. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
-We'll have to try to juggle things -to get that done. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
-Taf Valley Coaches has 30 buses, -but they don't all go out at once... | 0:03:58 | 0:04:02 | |
-..because Clive's a firm believer -in forward planning! | 0:04:02 | 0:04:07 | |
-We always have two or three spares. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:11 | |
-For the service, -we have two spare buses. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:15 | |
-If something goes wrong, -or the ticket machine goes down... | 0:04:15 | 0:04:21 | |
-..or if a bus -has been delayed on the road... | 0:04:21 | 0:04:25 | |
-Sometimes, they're all out. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:27 | |
-Your backside's winking then, -that's for sure... | 0:04:29 | 0:04:32 | |
-..hoping nothing goes wrong! | 0:04:32 | 0:04:34 | |
-Crymych is the home -of the family-run Midway Motors. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
-While the other buses in the west -are flat out, this yard is quiet. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:54 | |
-To be honest, -things seem to have come to a stop. | 0:04:54 | 0:05:00 | |
-Mam, the saviour! | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
-Hello, Midway Motors. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:05 | |
-It's lunchtime -and everyone's at the table. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
-No wonder the buses are quiet. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:12 | |
-Mother is the boss, -and she has three sons. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
-Iwan, the eldest, likes order. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:19 | |
-Mechanic Aled -keeps things ticking over. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
-Shon, the cheeky one, -is in charge of the trips. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:28 | |
-If you can leave it with me -until Friday. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:32 | |
-By Friday, I'll have sorted -which trip goes everywhere... | 0:05:32 | 0:05:36 | |
-..then I can finalize them -and get back to you. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:40 | |
-We all happen to be here today, -so we can have a chat. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:46 | |
-Sometimes, -it's me and Shon, or just me. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:49 | |
-There are different parts -of the business on the one site. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:55 | |
-We're all in different places. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
-Iwan might be busy -with MOTs all morning... | 0:05:58 | 0:06:01 | |
-..while Aled's in the garage. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:04 | |
-Lunchtime is the only time -we're together, so it's nice. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:08 | |
-And there's food on the cards, -which helps. | 0:06:09 | 0:06:12 | |
-Every member of the family -has their own role in the business. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
-..and it's crucial -that everyone agrees and gets along. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:23 | |
-But every family argues sometimes. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:26 | |
-Every family has its moments! | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
-Then they pass, and that's that. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:33 | |
-We live too close to fall out! | 0:06:33 | 0:06:35 | |
-You need babysitters! | 0:06:37 | 0:06:38 | |
-You need babysitters! - -And there's nowhere to hide! | 0:06:38 | 0:06:39 | |
-There's nowhere to hide in Crymych. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:44 | |
-That's also true -at Richards Bros' yard in Cardigan. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:49 | |
-While Marteine Richards watches... | 0:06:50 | 0:06:52 | |
-..Nigel Richards is tracking. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:00 | |
-If anyone complains -that a service bus is late... | 0:07:00 | 0:07:04 | |
-..we can check -and tell them it's on time. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:08 | |
-It's showing Haverfordwest station. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
-This shows all the service buses. | 0:07:13 | 0:07:15 | |
-It's the best thing -we've had in years. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:18 | |
-The company is owned by brothers -Marteine, Malcolm and Nigel. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:26 | |
-It's very clear -which one is the boss. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:29 | |
-I'm the eldest. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:30 | |
-We delegate to him. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:32 | |
-It's because I'm the eldest. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:34 | |
-We talk on the phone, mostly. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:38 | |
-Then we can't hit each other! | 0:07:38 | 0:07:40 | |
-The company has two main depots. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
-The Newport yard -is run by Nigel and Malcolm... | 0:07:46 | 0:07:51 | |
-..while the Cardigan HQ -is in Marteine's capable hands. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:55 | |
-I've been in the job for 56 years. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:57 | |
-I must enjoy it -or I wouldn't have stuck it! | 0:07:58 | 0:08:01 | |
-I'm in charge of general pricing. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
-Tailor-made, as they say. -That's what we try to do. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:08 | |
-We find out what people want... | 0:08:08 | 0:08:11 | |
-..and try to please them -as best we can. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
-But does the money man know -how his brothers spend it? | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
-Oh, good. Tea's arrived! | 0:08:21 | 0:08:24 | |
-Good boy, Twig. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:25 | |
-What have you got for us? | 0:08:26 | 0:08:27 | |
-A variety! | 0:08:28 | 0:08:29 | |
-Oh, that's nice, boys. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:32 | |
-Here's the box, nice but naughty. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
-This only happens -on a Tuesday, mind! | 0:08:35 | 0:08:39 | |
-Lloyd only brings us -a treat on a Tuesday. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:43 | |
-We all look forward to Tuesdays. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
-We cancel any Tuesday meetings -because the cakes come. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:51 | |
-A rather bigger treat has arrived -at Taf Valley Coaches' yard. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:56 | |
-Owner Clive is delighted. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
-This is our new bus, -which we bought from Plaxton. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:04 | |
-That's now the only company -in the UK that builds coaches. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:09 | |
-All the others have finished. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
-This is a Volvo bus, the B8 model. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:16 | |
-It has 59 seats, -three-point belts... | 0:09:17 | 0:09:21 | |
-..and air conditioning. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
-There's no toilet, -it's just a bus... | 0:09:23 | 0:09:27 | |
-I'd call it a people shifter. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
-Children and adults on trips -to Cardiff and back, say, or London. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:35 | |
-It has a capacity of 59. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:40 | |
-It cost, say it quickly, 218,000. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:43 | |
-But money doesn't have the value -that it had years ago. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:48 | |
-I remember -when I bought my first bus. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:51 | |
-We bought this place years ago, -Penrheol, for 75,000. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:55 | |
-The first bus we bought -cost 124,000. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:59 | |
-So, something with four wheels... | 0:10:00 | 0:10:03 | |
-..cost much more -than the house and the yard. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:08 | |
-It didn't make sense, did it? | 0:10:08 | 0:10:10 | |
-But that 124,000 has gone up, -for what is an ordinary bus. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:14 | |
-It's nice, don't get me wrong... | 0:10:15 | 0:10:17 | |
-..but for a new bus -with all the equipment today... | 0:10:18 | 0:10:21 | |
-..you'd be talking -more like 266,000. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
-That's a lot of pennies... | 0:10:26 | 0:10:28 | |
-..but Midway Motors in Crymych -clearly aren't short of cash. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:33 | |
-Or are they? | 0:10:34 | 0:10:35 | |
-If we're buying those six buses, -we need the deposit down today! | 0:10:36 | 0:10:40 | |
-How much is in your pocket? | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
-How much is in your pocket? - -Eat your sandwich first! | 0:10:44 | 0:10:45 | |
-If we get six, -we might as well buy twelve. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
-You might be right. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:51 | |
-Mam, can we have six buses? | 0:10:51 | 0:10:54 | |
-What with? Buttons? | 0:10:54 | 0:10:55 | |
-We could sell the sandwiches. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:58 | |

-Local companies Midway Motors -and Taf Valley Coaches... | 0:11:17 | 0:11:21 | |
-..battle to sell holidays -for the year to come. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:24 | |
-Battle is the operative word. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:27 | |
-Come on now, boys. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:31 | |
-Come on! | 0:11:31 | 0:11:32 | |
-Come on! - -Behave now! | 0:11:32 | 0:11:33 | |
-Where's Pavarotti? | 0:11:34 | 0:11:36 | |
-He's gone home. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:37 | |
-Is he around here? | 0:11:37 | 0:11:39 | |
-Shon Midway has called -at the Taf Valley Coaches stand. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
-As usual, he's full of mischief. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:46 | |
-He only wants to see one man. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
-Hello? | 0:11:50 | 0:11:51 | |
-He's too big -to hide between the seats. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:57 | |
-Hey! | 0:11:57 | 0:11:58 | |
-Where did you get this? Blackpool? | 0:12:00 | 0:12:02 | |
-When you don't have much hair, -you fry like an egg. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:06 | |
-The bus business -may be competitive... | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
-..but neither misses a chance -to pull the other's leg. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
-This is Midway's new bus. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:15 | |
-It carries twelve passengers... | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
-..and 18 bins. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:19 | |
-Mam's in the back, making tea! | 0:12:19 | 0:12:22 | |
-In marketing, image is everything. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
-Shon quickly spots -something wrong with Clive's stand. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:32 | |
-Can I ask -what happened to the flowers? | 0:12:32 | 0:12:36 | |
-Look at the state of them! | 0:12:37 | 0:12:38 | |
-Look at the state of them! - -Midway have poisoned our flowers! | 0:12:38 | 0:12:41 | |
-The public toilets -weren't open last night. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:46 | |
-This morning, we had Midway stickers -everywhere and dead flowers. | 0:12:47 | 0:12:51 | |
-This is serious, boys. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
-Do you know what happened? | 0:12:55 | 0:12:56 | |
-AdBlue in the water. | 0:12:57 | 0:12:58 | |
-AdBlue in the water. - -No! | 0:12:58 | 0:12:59 | |
-Did you? | 0:12:59 | 0:13:00 | |
-It doesn't work -if you want to keep them alive. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:06 | |
-It beats weedkiller, it's cheaper. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:09 | |
-It beats weedkiller, it's cheaper. - -Maybe not cheaper, but it's faster. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:12 | |
-While the AdBlue damages Clive's -flowers in Pembrokeshire... | 0:13:12 | 0:13:17 | |
-..the roads are busy in Ceredigion. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:20 | |
-Maldwyn and the Cardi Bach -are ferrying locals to Aberporth... | 0:13:21 | 0:13:25 | |
-..and he's having a good day. | 0:13:25 | 0:13:27 | |
-It's all I've ever done. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:32 | |
-I got my licence at 17, -and I'm not far off 70 now. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:36 | |
-I've driven for over 50 years, -and I've been lucky. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:40 | |
-Touch wood, I've been lucky. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:43 | |
-Maybe today's the day. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:45 | |
-I've had scratches, -but no convictions. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:49 | |
-I've done a fair mileage, -a thousand miles a week. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:53 | |
-A thousand miles a week -is 52,000 a year. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:56 | |
-Multiply by 50 years. | 0:13:56 | 0:13:58 | |
-How much is that? | 0:13:58 | 0:13:59 | |
-There's a sum for you. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:01 | |
-There's a sum for you. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:03 | |
-Yes, it is quite a sum. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:06 | |
-But people like Maldwyn -are scarce these days. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
-At one time, we'd get -ten good drivers trying for a job. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:16 | |
-Now, it's hard -to get ten bad drivers. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:18 | |
-You can advertise in the paper -for a driver and get nobody. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:25 | |
-It's a job to train them. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:28 | |
-It takes three or four months -to get everything done. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
-A medical, going through -the theory, then another one... | 0:14:32 | 0:14:37 | |
-..the practical, the CPC. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:39 | |
-It takes three or four months -to train a driver. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
-Even then, -you don't know if they're any good. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:46 | |
-They have to sign now. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:48 | |
-We've had some try the test -and leave straight afterwards. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:53 | |
-"I don't think I want this job." | 0:14:53 | 0:14:55 | |
-It costs over 1,000 to train them. | 0:14:55 | 0:14:58 | |
-But Midway and Taf Valley aren't -looking for drivers at the show. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:09 | |
-They want holidaymakers -to fill those buses. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:14 | |
-Yes, the Pembrokeshire Show -is very important for us... | 0:15:14 | 0:15:18 | |
-..as a rural family company. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:21 | |
-We've been coming here -for eight, nine, ten years maybe. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:25 | |
-There's a crowd here today, -and the first day is the best day. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:30 | |
-It helps us a lot -for the year ahead. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:34 | |
-They have to see -what they'll be travelling in. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:38 | |
-They can pick a seat. | 0:15:38 | 0:15:40 | |
-We keep a list -of the available seats for any trip. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:44 | |
-They can come here -and name their destination. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:48 | |
-Torquay, say. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:50 | |
-We can tell them that seats -one to five have been booked... | 0:15:50 | 0:15:54 | |
-..but seven and eight are available. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
-Maybe seven and eight -are by the curtains... | 0:15:57 | 0:16:00 | |
-..and they prefer nine and ten. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:02 | |
-Four have just booked -for next year's Rhine trip. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:07 | |
-They were with us -out in Austria recently. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:12 | |
-There's four of them, -two couples who became friends. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:15 | |
-People on trips become friends, -and they come back to us. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
-"If you're going, we'll go too." | 0:16:19 | 0:16:21 | |
-We've had several bookings -this morning. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |
-Back on the Midway stand, -Shon has his own marketing ploy. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:30 | |
-Come out, we'll sell a trip now. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:33 | |
-His tactics are much more inventive -than Clive's. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
-Are you well? | 0:16:45 | 0:16:46 | |
-Are you well? - -Very good. Looking good? | 0:16:46 | 0:16:48 | |
-Yes, I think so. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:49 | |
-Yes, I think so. - -Thanks very much, sir. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:50 | |
-I've got my boys with me as well. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:53 | |
-I've got my boys with me as well. - -Good job! | 0:16:53 | 0:16:54 | |
-And it works! | 0:16:54 | 0:16:56 | |
-It's a family business. | 0:16:57 | 0:16:58 | |
-We're all in it. | 0:16:59 | 0:17:01 | |
-The children all enjoy it. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:03 | |
-It's a couple of good days out. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:06 | |
-This is our show. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:07 | |
-We know so many who come here. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:11 | |
-It's nice to have a cuppa -and a chat. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:15 | |
-We're launching -the 2017 brochure today. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:19 | |
-This will be our sixtieth year... | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
-Well, not mine! | 0:17:23 | 0:17:24 | |
-In the bus business, you know. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:28 | |
-It's a big day -for us to be here celebrating. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
-Celebrating, and seizing every -chance to promote the business. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:37 | |
-Good PR! | 0:17:38 | 0:17:39 | |
-While some have fun at the show, -Richards Bros are busy in Cardigan. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:44 | |
-They have dozens of buses -out on the road every day. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:48 | |
-That entails a lot of maintenance. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:50 | |
-Each bus is maintained -every four weeks. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:55 | |
-If a bus is going abroad, -we bring it in anyway. | 0:17:55 | 0:17:59 | |
-The service buses -do about 80,000 miles a year. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:04 | |
-The coaches a little bit less. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:07 | |
-Behind every bus -that runs like a watch... | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
-..are mechanics with dirty hands. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:14 | |
-Tyres, brake pads and pins -all need to be checked... | 0:18:14 | 0:18:19 | |
-..before any bus leaves the depot... | 0:18:19 | 0:18:22 | |
-..not to mention changing the oil -and the odd filter. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:26 | |
-As well as the maintenance, -there's also lots of cleaning to do. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:32 | |
-The council demands -that they're clean going out. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:37 | |
-When the boys come back in the -evening, they sweep them out. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:40 | |
-Every bus is washed in the morning, -unless there's something wrong. | 0:18:41 | 0:18:46 | |
-They might even get washed again -during the day. | 0:18:47 | 0:18:51 | |
-Back at the Pembrokeshire Show, -Shon is making the tea. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:01 | |
-It's a useful trick -to keep customers happy. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:04 | |
-Light refreshments -make a big difference. | 0:19:04 | 0:19:07 | |
-They leave here -feeling like new people. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:11 | |
-Energized, ready to go. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:14 | |
-It's a nice touch. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
-OK, it costs us... | 0:19:17 | 0:19:20 | |
-..but it's a bit extra -to say thanks to them. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:24 | |
-Where's your tea, Clive? | 0:19:25 | 0:19:27 | |
-Where is it?! | 0:19:27 | 0:19:28 | |
-You don't have any, do you? No. | 0:19:28 | 0:19:31 | |
-And where are the flowers?! | 0:19:32 | 0:19:34 | |
-Finished! | 0:19:35 | 0:19:36 | |
-Yes, they are finished. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:39 | |
-But Clive won't let things go. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:41 | |
-We had beautiful flowers earlier. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:44 | |
-They're throwaway. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:46 | |
-We had shiny new buckets as well. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:50 | |
-Everything looked great. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:52 | |
-When I came back earlier, -I looked at the flowers. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:56 | |
-What's gone wrong here then? | 0:19:56 | 0:19:58 | |
-I looked at the others. | 0:19:58 | 0:19:59 | |
-I looked at the others. - -It's strong sunshine! | 0:19:59 | 0:20:01 | |
-The wind didn't do this, I thought. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
-Then I found out -that instead of water... | 0:20:03 | 0:20:07 | |
-We have cans in there... | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
-As it's an Euro 6 bus... | 0:20:10 | 0:20:12 | |
-..we have to put this stuff -into the exhaust system. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:16 | |
-It's Euro Sick now. | 0:20:16 | 0:20:17 | |
-It's Euro Sick now. - -These are Euro Sick, yes. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:18 | |
-The gardener of the year here... | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
-..what's his name, -Alan Titchmarsh... | 0:20:25 | 0:20:28 | |
-..put our flowers in acid, -to all intents, instead of water. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:33 | |
-There's no hope. No hope. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:36 | |
-Can't get the staff these days, -as they say. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:40 | |
-Say no more. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:41 | |
-Is that it with the flowers now? | 0:20:41 | 0:20:44 | |
-I doubt it. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
-The Midway boys -have something else in mind. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
-That's nice. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:51 | |
-Look at that quality! | 0:20:52 | 0:20:55 | |
-Three buses of quality. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:56 | |
-Here he is, never missing a chance -to rub salt into the wound. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:08 | |
-Alright, Clive? | 0:21:13 | 0:21:14 | |
-Now then. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:16 | |
-I felt such pity for you. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:19 | |
-This is plastic, -so it doesn't need water or AdBlue. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:23 | |
-Where's Tudur? | 0:21:23 | 0:21:24 | |
-Where's Tudur? - -I'll present it to him. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:26 | |
-This has taken over three years -to get to this stage. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:32 | |
-Do you want some AdBlue? | 0:21:32 | 0:21:34 | |
-On behalf of Midway Motors, Crymych, -I'd like to give you this. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:41 | |
-It's plastic, and doesn't need rain. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:44 | |
-I'll start to breed my own! | 0:21:44 | 0:21:47 | |
-When does the show end? | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
-This is the only one -that didn't get water, or AdBlue. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:55 | |
-I'm a bit disappointed -that they're not out on display! | 0:21:55 | 0:21:59 | |
-They're all dead. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:00 | |
-They're all dead. - -We've sold them! | 0:22:00 | 0:22:01 | |
-They're collector's items. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:03 | |
-Put that in the middle -and it'll look nice. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:06 | |
-Make sure it faces the right way! | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
-We won't be awkward. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:11 | |
-We'll put Midway facing front. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:14 | |
-Does it need water at all? | 0:22:14 | 0:22:15 | |
-Does it need water at all? - -Nothing at all. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
-Look at it. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:18 | |
-That's nice, boys. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:20 | |
-The bus looks better already! | 0:22:21 | 0:22:23 | |
-I'm very grateful. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:24 | |
-You'll learn sometime, -as Mam used to tell me! | 0:22:25 | 0:22:28 | |
-Has this story finished now? | 0:22:29 | 0:22:30 | |
-Has this story finished now? - -No! | 0:22:30 | 0:22:31 | |
-This won't be over for a while! | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
-We'll see. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:38 | |
-Next time... | 0:22:39 | 0:22:40 | |
-A three and a half hour crossing. -My first visit to the Isle of Man. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:45 | |
-Clive crosses the water -for a special trip. | 0:22:46 | 0:22:50 | |
-We have three different medicines, -and this one makes four... | 0:22:50 | 0:22:56 | |
-Glenys from Richards Bros... | 0:22:57 | 0:23:00 | |
-..has to get everyone -to school on time. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:03 | |
-I used to have to follow -a herd of cows down here. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:06 | |
-Some farms have over 100 cows, -so it took a long time. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:10 | |
-And Shon from Midway Motors -swaps driving for entertaining. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:15 | |
-Nothing's worse than standing -on stage and no-one laughing. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:20 | |
-Come with us on the buses. | 0:23:20 | 0:23:22 | |
