0:01:45 > 0:01:48- We kept it pretty late.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53- There's quite a lot of walking - to be done for the lambing.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58- Yes, two or three hours - of walking every day.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01- You've been doing it - for years, Gron.

0:02:13 > 0:02:17- When I'm not working, I can come up - on this side with Gron.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- She doesn't need to come every day.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22- That's too much for me.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24- The walking?!
0:02:24 > 0:02:25- Yes!
0:02:27 > 0:02:28- What's this little cottage?
0:02:28 > 0:02:30- What's this little cottage?- - It was a cowshed.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33- Was food stored there - for the animals?
0:02:33 > 0:02:36- I've been told - it was brought up in the spring.
0:02:37 > 0:02:38- They cut...
0:02:39 > 0:02:40- Oops!
0:02:42 > 0:02:44- Where on earth did you go?!
0:02:46 > 0:02:49- You told me - that I needed decent shoes!
0:02:49 > 0:02:50- Are you OK?
0:02:50 > 0:02:51- Are you OK?- - My behind is soaked!
0:02:52 > 0:02:54- Do you have - another pair of trousers?
0:02:57 > 0:03:00- These shoes aren't too suitable.
0:03:01 > 0:03:05- Lisa, you are young...
0:03:05 > 0:03:11- ..but it's nice to have people like - Gron with the necessary experience.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14- Yes, because to us...
0:03:14 > 0:03:19- ..people like Gron and Gwilym Maes - y Pandy before him are stalwarts.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23- We've had the best people - giving us direction...
0:03:23 > 0:03:26- ..in our last eight years - on Pennant and Pencoed.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29- They've helped us - understand the land.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31- We're trying to learn.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34- We're trying to take their lead.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36- We have a lot of fun with them.
0:03:36 > 0:03:40- It is a pain to think - what we'll do after.
0:03:40 > 0:03:44- We have men like Wil Hendreseifion - and Dilwyn Rhiwogof.
0:03:44 > 0:03:48- They are people - who respect the old traditions.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49- That is important.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52- You can't take a bike. - We have to walk.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54- But seeing them...
0:03:54 > 0:03:56- ..the mothers are just fantastic.
0:03:56 > 0:03:57- ..the mothers are just fantastic.- - Oh, yes.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01- The biggest problem we have then - is catching the sheep...
0:04:01 > 0:04:03- ..when they have a problem.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07- You use a dog but the dogs - don't always catch them.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10- You need a good dog - in this environment.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13- If you don't catch the sheep, - you can end up in the river.
0:04:13 > 0:04:14- There's a river all the way around.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17- There's a river all the way around.- - Once they're there, that's it.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19- I'd be wetter than you then!
0:04:28 > 0:04:30- Do you want me to go up?
0:04:30 > 0:04:32- Do you want me to go up?- - Yes.
0:04:32 > 0:04:33- I'll go down a bit.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36- There we go, I'll go up and around.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40- We can go out together then.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45- It's quite nice here.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49- Few people know these slopes - better than Gron.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54- He did farm at Pennant until - Lisa and Ken came here to live.
0:04:54 > 0:04:59- His experience and knowledge - have been a big help to the family.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03- Was she alright, Gron?
0:05:03 > 0:05:04- Was she alright, Gron?- - Yes, yes.
0:05:05 > 0:05:06- Very good.
0:05:06 > 0:05:07- Very good.- - It was a small lamb.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09- So it's all OK. Very good.
0:05:09 > 0:05:10- So it's all OK. Very good.- - Yes.
0:05:11 > 0:05:12- Did you see any up top?
0:05:12 > 0:05:14- Did you see any up top?- - No, everything was OK.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18- It's easy - because you don't see the corner.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23- Have you cultivated the land?
0:05:23 > 0:05:26- Yes, I used to cultivate - these open parts.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29- You managed to bring - a tractor up here?
0:05:29 > 0:05:31- Yes, I did.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35- That was years ago. 1976, I think.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37- That was a very dry summer.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- I think that's why - it looks so good now.
0:05:41 > 0:05:42- It's very good grazing land.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- It's very good grazing land.- - There was a lot of bracken before.
0:05:50 > 0:05:51- Was there anything down there?
0:05:51 > 0:05:52- Was there anything down there?- - What?
0:05:52 > 0:05:54- Was there anything down there?
0:05:55 > 0:05:56- No, I did check.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00- Nothing there? - It would be a good place for them.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02- I'm very happy.
0:06:04 > 0:06:05- Are you out of breath?
0:06:05 > 0:06:06- Are you out of breath?- - Yes.
0:06:07 > 0:06:08- I'm meant to be quite fit, Gron.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10- I'm meant to be quite fit, Gron.- - Yes, I thought so.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13- I've got a half marathon in a month.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16- There we go.
0:06:16 > 0:06:17- I'm sure this helps.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22- While Lisa and Gron - continue with their inspection...
0:06:22 > 0:06:27- ..Ken is happy that everything looks - fine the other side of the mountain.
0:06:29 > 0:06:29- How was it, Ken?
0:06:29 > 0:06:31- How was it, Ken?- - It was fine, Dai. Fine.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34- Everything looked very tidy, - I would say.
0:06:34 > 0:06:38- When everything goes right, - it's just pure pleasure.
0:06:38 > 0:06:39- Yes, it is.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42- It's nice to be out - in some sunshine.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- We've had quite a good spring - this year.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47- The sheep look stronger.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51- Yes, there was snow this time - last year up at halfway.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- It works well that Gron and Lisa - take one side and you the other.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57- It's the only way we can do it.
0:06:57 > 0:07:01- They come up here - and I head toward Bodilan Fach.
0:07:01 > 0:07:06- Will you do things like clipping, - castrating...
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- ..marking and dipping up here?
0:07:09 > 0:07:12- Everything is done up here. - The sheep don't ever leave.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15- The lambs are born here, - we shear here.
0:07:16 > 0:07:20- The only time the sheep come down - is when they go to the sales.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22- The twins go down - to the fields in Pennant.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- They don't get anything at all. - They're organic.
0:07:26 > 0:07:30- A good pen is essential - for an upland sheep farm.
0:07:30 > 0:07:35- The craftwork that went into - building the old walls is clear.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- You say there was nothing - up here before.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41- There was a zinc fence.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44- It was an ugly thing.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47- This is a yard.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- As well as being tidy, - it's also safe.
0:07:50 > 0:07:51- It was a lot of work.
0:07:51 > 0:07:52- It was a lot of work.- - I can imagine.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- Did you collect the stones - from the vicinity?
0:07:56 > 0:08:00- Yes. We weren't allowed - to take them all from one spot.
0:08:00 > 0:08:01- No, no.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05- We brought most of them - from the area I'd cultivated.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- How long did it take - to build this wall?
0:08:08 > 0:08:12- I'm not sure in terms of time. - I think it was two summers.
0:08:12 > 0:08:13- Really?
0:08:13 > 0:08:14- You can't build in winter.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15- You can't build in winter.- - No, of course.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18- There's more shelter - on the other side!
0:08:18 > 0:08:20- Moving the stones - was the biggest job.
0:08:21 > 0:08:22- A few of them are huge.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27- We had an old tractor - to load them in.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30- I hear you're a musical man.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32- I do like music, yes.
0:08:33 > 0:08:34- I like to hear you singing.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36- I like to hear you singing.- - You definitely like singing then!
0:08:38 > 0:08:40- I've heard - that you have a mouth organ.
0:08:40 > 0:08:41- Yes.
0:08:41 > 0:08:42- Come on, let's hear some of it.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44- Come on, let's hear some of it.- - I'm not very good at it!
0:08:44 > 0:08:46- The one with the mouth organ!
0:08:46 > 0:08:48- I'll sing.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- Don't blame me - if it starts raining tomorrow.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54- Don't make me be out of tune.
0:08:54 > 0:08:55- Get in, Dai!
0:08:55 > 0:08:58- Dear me, dear me.

0:09:25 > 0:09:35- # All the feeble gently leading
0:09:35 > 0:09:44- # While the lambs Thy bosom share #
0:09:44 > 0:09:48- It was difficult to sing - and look at the hillside down there.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50- It was fine this side!
0:09:50 > 0:09:53- How long have you played - the mouth organ?
0:09:53 > 0:09:54- Years and years.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57- Watch you don't go too close - to the edge.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00- I've driven this way - a hundred times.
0:10:00 > 0:10:01- It's my first time!
