-Hello and welcome to Bore Da

-on the first weekend of April.

-The clocks have been turned forward

-so we have extra hours of daylight.

-The sun won't be setting

-until 7.45pm...

-..so there's plenty of time

-to go out and about.

-Sit back and enjoy the next hour

-with me.

-On today's programme...

-..we hear about the Welsh Learners'

-Eisteddfod in Caernarfon.

-The competitors were excellent.

-I visit a very unique cafe

-in the centre of Fishguard.

-Rhodri Davies

-samples the best produce from Wales.

-There's your opinions

-of the new 1 coin.

-Rhodri Gomer

-competes in the Battle on the Beach.

-Stay right where you are

-and enjoy the next hour.

-Welcome, once again, to Bore Da.

-We start with some singing

-and reciting.

-The Welsh Learners' Eisteddfod...

-..was at the Market Hall

-in Caernarfon last week.

-Our cameras were there.

-# The old mare galloped

-from nine o'clock to twelve

-# Without raising a fly #

-You don't need a pavilion

-to hold an Eisteddfod.

-The Market Hall in Caernarfon...

-..was the perfect location

-for the Welsh Learners' Eisteddfod.

-# Ready to comfort... #

-Every Eisteddfod needs an organizer.

-Lowri is delighted

-that it's all running so smoothly.

-It's going really well and there's

-more to come after our break.

-There's more performances to come

-but it's great so far.

-Tell us about the event as this is

-the first that you've organized.

-Yes, it's the first time

-that I've organized it.

-It's been running for five years.

-The Market Hall

-has hosted the last three.

-I haven't organized it before

-so it's all new for me!

-# I was going to fix the table

-# But no

-# The day went by #

-The question that's always asked

-at an Eisteddfod is...

-..how is your Eisteddfod?

-That's my question

-to Martyn Croydon.

-It's busy as I'm helping to present

-the evening.

-You're obviously enjoying it.

-Is it really four years since you

-won the Welsh Learner of the Year?

-Yes, it was four years ago

-in Denbigh.

-The Eisteddfod has

-a very special place in my heart.

-This Eisteddfod is great for people

-to start performing on the stage...

-..and do whatever they like.

-The next step is to go

-to the National Eisteddfod.

-This is very encouraging.

-Some of these people

-don't need encouraging...

-..because this room

-is brimming with confidence.

-There's a lot

-of talented people here.

-# They were all sombre #

-Mark Young

-currently lives in Bethesda.

-Where are you from originally, Mark?

-Where are you from originally, Mark?

-

-I'm originally from Gloucester.

-How long have you

-been learning Welsh?

-Four years.

-Why did you decide to learn Welsh?

-I think it's important

-to support this culture.

-It's important to be part

-of the community where you live.

-You're at the Eisteddfod...

-..to recite a famous sonnet

-by R Williams Parry from Bethesda.

-Yes, it's Y Llwynog or The Fox.

-Why is this sonnet so popular

-and why did you choose to recite it?

-I live in rural Wales

-and the poem speaks to me.

-It talks about the mountains,

-the fox and other things.

-You mentioned that R Williams Parry

-lived in Bethesda...

-..and I live there too.

-What makes the Welsh Learners'

-Eisteddfod so special for you?

-I enjoy being with all the people.

-There's beer and music

-and it's excellent.

-"He also stopped.

-"His eyes staring unblinking,

-above his steady paws."

-Congratulations to Mark Young.

-He won with his recital

-of the sonnet, Y Llwynog.

-"Disappearing like a shooting star."

-Thank you.

-Let's move on

-to the Chairing ceremony.

-It was a great night for Semita

-but who is Semita?

-It's a successful night for Semita

-or Daniela Schlick.

-Congratulations on winning the Chair

-at the Welsh Learners' Eisteddfod.

-The topic was "llwybrau" or paths.

-How did you interpret that topic?

-What sort of poem did you write?

-I don't think it had a metre.

-I just wanted to write a poem

-about the path that I have followed.

-It's about the challenges, decisions

-and good things in my life.

-I wanted people to know

-that I plan to continue...

-..and keep walking along the path

-that I'm currently following.

-I've been very lucky

-and everything has been fantastic.

-How long have you been learning

-Welsh and where are you from?

-I'm originally from Saxony

-and lived in Berlin for 15 years.

-I've been learning Welsh

-for about four years...

-..and been to a summer school

-for two years.

-I've lived in Wales for two years...

-..and learn Welsh every week

-or every day since that time.

-Congratulations to you, Daniela.

-What makes the Welsh Learners'

-Eisteddfod so special?

-There's so many Welsh learners

-competing here.

-They are brave enough

-to step on the stage and compete.

-This is a great opportunity

-to show what we can do.

-It's cool!

-Congratulations to you once again.

-Congratulations to you once again.

-

-Thank you.

-Congratulations to everyone.

-We're all guilty of wasting food.

-A cafe in the centre of Fishguard

-makes the most of food waste.

-They use food that is about to be

-thrown away by the supermarkets...

-..and have just won

-a prestigious European award.

-Some of you will recall my visit

-to this cafe in Fishguard...

-..a year ago.

-Since that time,

-a lot of things have changed.

-They are celebrating success

-in the competition...

-..as well as its success

-as a thriving business in the town.

-We've just won a European

-food waste competition.

-We impressed with the sustainable

-approach we take to using the foods.

-They said that what we do

-could be replicated across Europe.

-We've welcomed all sorts of people.

-Some have come from Africa

-and even America to see us.

-They read about us on the website

-and felt the need to visit.

-It's a small place...

-..but is growing in fame.

-The cafe faces the possibility

-of closure...

-..as they are about

-to lose the building.

-It would be very unfortunate because

-a lot of people use the place...

-..not just customers...

-..but it's rewarding

-for the volunteers too.

-It's a community in itself

-and everyone looks after each other.

-It delivers a very important service

-to the community.

-It isn't just a cafe

-but is a hub for the community...

-..with about 50 volunteers who work

-in the cafe throughout the year.

-We've got to find a new home

-for this cafe.

-A lot of us

-want to keep this place open...

-..and have said that we'll do

-all we can to keep it open.

-We've got to find

-a building somewhere.

-I'll keep my fingers crossed and

-will let you get on with your work.

-Yes, I've got hundreds to do!

-Yes, I've got hundreds to do!

-

-Good luck.

-Fishguard is the only town

-in the country with this award...

-..and not just Wales and Britain

-but the whole of Europe.

-The whole community

-should be proud of it.

-Congratulations to them.

-It's only three weeks...

-..until thousands of people will

-take part in the London Marathon.

-It's one of the world's

-biggest races.

-Will you be one of the runners

-or do you know someone taking part?

-Heno wants to hear from you.

-On Sunday 23 April...

-..thousands of people from the world

-over will run the London Marathon.

-Millions of pounds

-will be raised for good causes.

-Contact us if you're running

-and want to promote your charity.

-It's a great way

-to get some publicity...

-..and you might even raise

-more money for your charity.

-Heno is also able

-to wish you the best.

-London Marathon runners...

-..should email us

-on [email protected]

-Call us on 01554 880 880 or contact

-us via our social media pages.

-We look forward to hearing from you.

-Make sure you contact them.

-That's all for now.

-In the second part

-of the programme...

-..we sample the best produce

-that Wales has to offer.

-There's also your opinions

-on the new 1 coin.

-Join us in a few minutes.

-Welcome back.

-Last week, the Welsh Assembly

-organized an event...

-..that celebrated Welsh produce.

-Over 100 companies exhibited their

-produce in the Celtic Manor Hotel.

-Rhodri Davies

-went to sample the event.

-Let me start with a few facts.

-You might be surprised to know...

-..that 250,000 people work in the

-food and drink industry in Wales.

-It's worth 17 billion...

-..in terms of our annual economy.

-Our exports have doubled

-in the last decade.

-The aim of this Taste Wales event...

-..is to ensure that those figures

-continue to grow.

-The aim of this event

-is to celebrate Welsh produce...

-..and unite the industry.

-This is for buyers

-from the United Kingdom...

-..and around the world.

-We've organized over 1,000 meetings.

-There's over 100 producers

-here today...

-..and an exhibition

-of over 300 delicacies.

-The quality of the produce

-is incredible.

-I'm Rhian from Plas Farm

-on Anglesey.

-We make frozen yoghurt, ice cream,

-coleslaw and potato salad.

-We've come to the Taste Wales event

-to promote our frozen yoghurt...

-..to people in the UK

-and further afield.

-I'm from Devil's Bridge

-near Aberystwyth.

-The shop is in the village

-opposite the train station...

-..so it's a great site for tourists.

-We make an array of chocolates.

-There are chocolates with fillings,

-bars with various toppings...

-..as well as some fudge.

-We're based in Llanrwst.

-The company produces

-traditional cakes.

-We also make desserts

-and savoury quiches.

-It's an anxious

-and uncertain time...

-..but this gives people

-the opportunity to be pioneering.

-Is there a good reason

-for us to feel confident?

-Negative thoughts are restricting...

-..so we should be positive

-and look to the future.

-Sitting back and doing nothing

-is not an option.

-We've had to work hard to make sure

-Brexit doesn't effect us too much.

-The National Assembly supports

-Welsh businesses including myself.

-I hope people from foreign climbs

-try our chocolate...

-..and buy some!

-Why should people

-buy your chocolate?

-It's wonderful.

-We've won a number of Great

-Taste Awards for the chocolate.

-Whilst roaming around

-this exhibition...

-..you're struck by the cross-section

-of quality produce that we have.

-Taste sells

-and the taste is important.

-There's over

-100 Welsh companies here.

-The quality is brilliant.

-Next week, we're launching

-our partnership with Calon Wen.

-We're using their organic milk

-to make frozen yoghurt.

-It's being launched in Tesco

-branches in Wales next week.

-It's great to work with

-other Welsh companies...

-..whilst promoting our own produce.

-We use Halen Mon

-Anglesey Sea Salt...

-..and Caws Cenarth Cheese

-in our produce.

-We attract people from

-North America, China and so on...

-..to see and experience Wales

-as a whole.

-The atmosphere here shows that

-we have confident producers.

-They have the best products that the

-government is delighted to promote.

-It's a great idea.

-We're celebrating Welsh produce.

-Nothing beats Welsh beef.

-It was on the menu

-in the Prynhawn Da kitchen recently.

-We've joined Elwen in the kitchen

-who has been working hard.

-Welcome to the programme.

-How are you today?

-How are you today?

-

-I'm fine, thank you.

-We can smell some incredible spices.

-You're making beef kebabs today.

-Yes, I wanted

-a very easy recipe today.

-They are easy to make.

-They are easy to make.

-

-I'm glad to hear it.

-I'm using some wonderful pieces

-of Welsh beef.

-I've chosen the rump steak

-which is a cheaper cut of meat.

-You don't need a lot.

-This was one large, thick steak.

-I'll serve it with potatoes

-and will serve four people.

-You can see that I've already

-cut the meat into cubes.

-They are quite large pieces.

-They are quite large pieces.

-

-There's plenty of bite to them.

-I'm going to marinate it.

-Yoghurt is a common ingredient

-in Indian dishes.

-I'm going to add the spices

-to the yoghurt.

-I've got some chilli.

-Do you like spicy food?

-Do you like spicy food?

-

-I love it!

-You can use any sized chilli.

-I've also got some ground coriander.

-There's a touch of paprika.

-I've got some mild chilli powder...

-..and curry powder.

-The recipe will tell you

-the exact quantities.

-I've also got a tablespoon

-of garam masala.

-These aren't too spicy.

-Next, we add one grated onion.

-This is simply mixed together.

-This will give the meat

-its Indian flavour.

-Most of us will have the ingredients

-in our spice cupboards...

-..but they are easy to find

-in the shops.

-Yes, but this dish should save

-people going out to buy things.

-It won't make much difference if

-you don't have all the ingredients.

-Use what you've got.

-The meat goes in and allow it

-to rest for as long as possible.

-Would you leave it overnight?

-Would you leave it overnight?

-

-Yes, that would be brilliant.

-It needs at least an hour.

-Yoghurt is often used in marinades

-because it contains acid.

-This meat isn't going to be tough.

-If you have a cheaper cut of meat...

-..the yoghurt will help

-to tenderize it...

-..as it contains enzymes and acid.

-That's all it takes

-and it's very simple.

-Next, I want to show you

-the baby potatoes.

-These are a great size.

-You can cut the larger ones in half.

-These have been parboiled

-for five to seven minutes...

-..so they are still quite firm.

-Let's turn to our kebab skewers.

-These have been soaked in water.

-It stops them burning in the oven

-or on the barbecue.

-I know the weather

-isn't ideal today...

-..but it was glorious

-this time last year.

-We started having barbecues

-this time last year.

-These can be made on the barbecue.

-These can be made on the barbecue.

-

-Yes, of course.

-Today, I'm baking them in the oven.

-All you need to do is line them up

-on the skewers.

-The potatoes need to be firm so that

-they don't fall off the skewers.

-I was a bit slow there!

-Before washing my hands,

-I just want to grease them.

-Today,

-these are going into the oven.

-You can try them whilst

-I prepare some accompaniments.

-I've got some I made earlier.

-How hot should the oven be?

-How hot should the oven be?

-

-It needs to be a hot oven.

-I'd say gas mark 6

-or 200 degrees Celsius.

-Let me get them out of the oven.

-I can't wait to see them as always!

-You should be able to smell it.

-Do you need to turn them?

-Do you need to turn them?

-

-No, I didn't turn them.

-I'll take the meat off a few

-of the skewers for you to taste it.

-If I've got time,

-I'll show you some accompaniments.

-Let's put those here.

-Have you got time to try it?

-Have you got time to try it?

-

-You've got a few minutes.

-You can have one each.

-I think you might want to try it.

-I don't want it to drip

-all over that beautiful blouse.

-I'll eat both of them

-if you don't hurry up!

-You should taste the spices.

-This is what I'll do next.

-Indian food is often served

-with some natural yoghurt...

-..and naan bread.

-I want to make something simple.

-I think coriander is a great flavour

-with Indian food.

-Chop up a lot of coriander...

-..some red onion

-and cherry tomatoes.

-Chop them up and mix them together.

-Serve this with the kebabs

-and it's a meal in itself.

-It's hotter than I expected.

-It's lovely and isn't that hot

-but is quite spicy.

-If it's too hot...

-..you can cut down on the spices.

-These ingredients are simply mixed

-in a bowl and it's ready to serve.

-It's a simple supper and you

-don't need more potatoes or rice.

-Whilst you're doing that...

-..tell us about a competition

-run by Meat Promotion Wales...

-..to win a rugby kit.

-Yes, there's a competition

-for youth teams across Wales.

-Parents who are watching need to

-tell us if your child plays rugby.

-Send us a photograph of the team...

-..either during training

-or after a match.

-It should be sent to #BredInHeaven.

-You could win 1,000 and

-a training session with Phil John.

-Mmm, I love beef!

-Have you seen the new 1 coin?

-It was launched last Tuesday.

-This is the word on the street.

-This new 1 coin looks fake.

-The leek that represents Wales

-resembles a pineapple!

-It reminds me of a threepenny piece

-from my childhood.

-I don't have an opinion.

-It's something new and

-there's obviously a demand for it.

-I'm not bothered either way.

-Why do they want to change it?

-It's cost us 300 million.

-I think it looks pretty and shiny.

-It's similar to the 2 coin

-in terms of its colour.

-A pound is a pound

-and the shape isn't important.

-When you move it, there's a hologram

-to show you it's 1.

-I think the shape will confuse

-my brother-in-law who is blind.

-It's a good idea...

-..if it stops people

-from breaking the law.

-I'm anticipating a lot of problems

-with items such as trolleys.

-These things will need to be changed

-so that's an added expense.

-A pound is a pound

-and it's spent in seconds.

-It's only money.

-It's time for a break.

-In a moment, Rhodri Gomer takes part

-in the Battle on the Beach.

-There's also floral patterns

-in our style item.

-Join us in a few minutes.

-Welcome back.

-Next, we venture to the beach

-with Rhodri Gomer...

-..for the Battle on the Beach!

-The company, A Cycling...

-..is run by the former mountain bike

-rider, Matt Page of Llangadog.

-It organizes successful cycling

-and running events in South Wales.

-I've filmed many of their events...

-..so chose to partake

-in the biggest of them all.

-The Battle on the Beach.

-There's no turning back.

-I've registered

-and picked up my number...

-..but the nerves

-are starting to kick in.

-I tend to stick to road cycling

-but this is where I'm cycling today.

-The route starts

-with a 6km-ride on the beach...

-..before entering the forest.

-We'll do two laps

-around Pembrey Country Park.

-This is going to be tough!

-The thin tyres of my road bike

-were unsuitable for the sand...

-..so I borrowed a bike

-that is more popular in this sport.

-I would ride on the thick tyres

-of the Surly Fat Bike.

-We're two minutes away

-from starting the race.

-I'm just one of over 800 competitors

-in this race today.

-This is the biggest off-road race...

-..in the whole of Britain...

-..and I'm a part of it.

-From the sky...

-..the start of the race on Cefn

-Sidan Beach was a sight to behold.

-It's great!

-The organizer, Matt has developed

-a number of renowned races to date.

-I think this is the only race

-on a beach.

-The site hosts Cyclo-Cross races

-but they don't use the entire beach.

-I think it's excellent.

-We're lucky that we're not

-cycling against the wind today.

-It isn't going very well.

-I've had a puncture

-so changed a tyre and the bike.

-I ran for 1.5 miles

-but am ready to go again.

-Oh, this is tough!

-A shell was the cause

-of my problems.

-Many had travelled from foreign

-climbs and escaped any difficulties.

-Bram Imming was the fourth Dutchman

-to win the Open title.

-The women's race

-was won by a member...

-..of the England Women's Rugby

-World Cup winning team in 2014...

-..Sophie Halhead.

-The winner of the Fun race

-for those aged 14 and over...

-..was a young Welshman

-from Builth Wells.

-It was very good.

-I came first with a time

-of one hour and five minutes.

-I really enjoyed it.

-I enjoyed it...

-..but I set off too quickly

-on the first lap.

-It was fine once I'd found my pace.

-It was incredible and the weather

-was great for some good racing.

-I'm exhausted.

-This was my first Battle on the

-Beach and it's going to be my last!

-What did you think

-of that stretch on the beach?

-It was fine if you were in a group

-but was more difficult on your own.

-That's where I went wrong because

-I didn't have any friends with me.

-This is my third time

-of doing the race...

-..and the weather

-has been on our side each time.

-It's brilliant.

-It's 20 miles and two bikes later...

-..but I crossed the finish line

-and have the evidence to prove it.

-Yes, it was quite

-a Battle on the Beach!

-Congratulations to everyone.

-Next, we have some

-interior design advice.

-I'm told that floral patterns

-are very stylish this season.

-Floral patterns are one

-of the season's popular trends.

-Lowri Steffan shows us

-how to use it in our homes.

-How are you, Lowri?

-How are you, Lowri?

-

-Very good.

-You've dressed appropriately.

-You've dressed appropriately.

-

-Yes, I chose it for the programme.

-I'm wearing the trend but

-where do we start with our homes?

-Fashion and interior design

-often follow the same themes.

-It's popular on the catwalks...

-..and the interior designers

-have followed suit.

-It's all about emotions.

-The first section is

-the most traditional of them all...

-..using traditional colours.

-Laura Ashley is one

-of the trendsetters with this theme.

-A lot of us

-will remember the 1980s...

-..when Laura Ashley

-first popularized this theme.

-She designed clothes and bedware.

-These designs are back.

-The colours are still strong

-but the patterns are tamer.

-This bowl is 36 from Laura Ashley.

-There's also a jug for 32.

-It's classical.

-Yes, and it might be all you need

-in a room.

-It's one focal point for this theme

-in the one room.

-It's very traditional.

-This is teamed with

-natural fabrics...

-..such as this traditional

-Welsh blanket.

-This front section is all the work

-of the designer, Catrin Saywell.

-This is totally different

-and very modern.

-She's a young artist who studied

-and has graduated in art.

-These days, she digitally transfers

-her watercolour paintings...

-..to feature on household items.

-They aren't expensive.

-They aren't expensive.

-

-No, the prices aren't bad.

-The lampshade is about 28.

-You can get some tea towels...

-..small pouches and other items.

-It's a strong theme

-with some wonderful colours.

-I think one of these pieces

-would look great in a bedroom.

-I wanted to introduce you to a new

-designer who's following this trend.

-We look forward

-to seeing more of her work.

-In this next section...

-..the patterns

-are far more delicate.

-These feature

-a paler palette of colours.

-This box is 5.99 from TK Maxx.

-Lavender and mint green

-is a lovely colour combination.

-I could see that in any room.

-You can stick to this colour palette

-with this cushion from M&S.

-It's made using a tapestry effect.

-It's reminiscent

-of the old tapestries.

-You mentioned older looking items

-and we have an interesting bowl.

-It's quite old-fashioned

-but popular at the same time.

-It shows two different techniques.

-There's the traditional custom

-of drying and pressing flowers.

-They sit between

-two layers of glass.

-The glass has a pink lustre to it.

-It's beautiful.

-It's 29.50 from M&S.

-You can get a collection of items

-and create something striking.

-It's quite soft

-thanks to the pale pink.

-Let's turn to this sofa.

-Yes, and it's quite a strong look.

-There's a lot of cushions

-that come from TK Maxx.

-The patterns are far more striking.

-They are very strong.

-That cushion is made

-from a lovely velvet and is 39.99.

-You could cuddle up with it.

-It's abstract and gives a suggestion

-of nature and flowers...

-..but isn't as bold.

-It's a very strong look.

-I love these large cushions that are

-39.99 each in a lavender colour.

-The blanket picks out

-another colour.

-Mari really likes this blanket.

-It's 45 from Dunelm and picks out

-that lovely shade of mustard.

-There's also a vase next to it.

-It's another striking piece

-and the flowers come with the vase.

-It's one piece from TK Maxx

-and is 49.99.

-You might think it's expensive...

-..but you don't need to change

-the water or throw the flowers away.

-And they don't wilt and make a mess.

-You can sit them on the floor.

-If you have fake flowers...

-..you can place one of those

-perfumed diffusers next to them.

-It will fill the room

-with the natural aromas...

-..and you're drawn to the flowers.

-It gives the impression

-of having real flowers in your home.

-It really works.

-I love that corner!

-This is even bolder.

-It has the essence of nature.

-You have the blooms and

-the strong palette with the orange.

-It suits the summer.

-Yes, you think of the summer

-or Morocco and India.

-It's a combination of styles.

-The cushion on that chair is great.

-I think that it's about 19

-for that cushion.

-Team it with another strong colour

-so that both are on the same level.

-That chair is striking.

-It's 39.99 for that chair

-from TK Maxx.

-In style terms...

-..it's reminiscent of the

-strong orange colours of the 1970s.

-We've also got two flower pots

-that have been stacked.

-There's the large blue pot

-on the bottom...

-..and the smaller orange pot

-is on top.

-It's 12.99 from TK Maxx.

-You can mix and match

-a lot of items.

-We've got some glasses

-and a picnic set in the front.

-It's quite an eclectic look

-with these different pieces.

-You could achieve the look

-with a few items.

-Yes, or you could go all out!

-It's lovely to hear you

-talking about picnics.

-You can get floral picnic sets

-and trays in a lot of shops.

-We can look forward to it all.

-Roll on!

-Thank you, Lowri Steffan.

-Those were some great colours

-and patterns.

-In the final part

-of today's programme...

-..we celebrate the birthday

-of a special lady from Tremadog.

-Huw Rees has the latest designs

-from the high street.

-Don't move a muscle!

-Welcome back.

-Tremadog is our next stop...

-..as we send some birthday wishes

-to a special lady...

-..who is known locally

-as Anti Meirwen.

-The staff and children

-were all as quiet as a mouse.

-Ysgol Y Gorlan was ready

-to wish a happy birthday...

-..to Anti Meirwen,

-who is 80 years old.

-# Happy birthday to you! #

-Happy birthday

-and congratulations to you.

-You weren't expecting this.

-Oh, goodness me, no.

-If I'd known about it,

-I would have stayed in bed!

-You're 80 years old but how long

-have you worked at Ysgol Y Gorlan?

-On 12 April,

-I will have been here for 45 years.

-Many happy returns to Anti Meirwen.

-Hoorah!

-The biggest challenge

-was keeping this a secret...

-..from both Anti Meirwen

-and the children...

-..in case someone slipped up.

-A group of us have been busy

-decorating the hall all morning.

-We had to make sure Anti Meirwen

-didn't have a clue about it.

-I started school here

-at the tender age of five...

-..and was lucky to get a job here.

-Anti Meirwen has looked after me

-and fed me in all that time.

-What can I say about Meirwen

-that hasn't been said already?

-I've worked with her for 27 years.

-There's never been

-a cross word between us.

-I can always rely on her

-both in school and outside too.

-She's a great friend.

-Anti Meirwen has worked

-for six head teachers.

-She's fed generations of children

-who are extremely grateful to her.

-She was here when Dad was a pupil

-at the school...

-..and he's turning 50 this year.

-Anti Meirwen has worked at

-Ysgol Y Gorlan for 45 years.

-She's always very kind

-and never has a bad word to say.

-The food she serves is delicious.

-She's very kind

-and never raises her voice at us.

-When there's leftover food,

-she always lets us have it.

-She's never nasty to anyone

-and is always very generous.

-There's one thing the pupils

-of Ysgol y Gorlan have yet to do.

-The have sung Happy Birthday

-and you have blown out the candles.

-Let's all say "Hip-hip-hooray!"

-Let's all say "Hip-hip-hooray!"

-

-Hip-hip-hooray!

-Congratulations to you.

-Congratulations to you.

-

-Thank you very much.

-The Heno cameras travel around Wales

-all day and every day.

-We're your national newspaper.

-Happy St David's Day!

-If you're organizing an event

-of any size...

-..make sure you invite us

-and we'll be there!

-Contact us via Facebook, Twitter,

-by email or telephone.

-You could even write us a letter.

-Post it to Heno, Tinopolis,

-Park Street, Llanelli, SA15 3YE.

-From Aberdaron to Abertillery...

-..Heno is at the heart

-of every community in Wales.

-The hour has flown and we've reached

-our final item of the programme.

-Huw has the essential items

-that we should all have this spring.

-Spring has officially arrived.

-We can start looking at

-the spring and summer collections.

-I've looked at the trends and have

-what magazines call the key points.

-They are the essentials.

-It doesn't mean

-you have to buy them all.

-You might have a lot of these pieces

-in your wardrobe already.

-Compare what we've got

-with the items in your wardrobe...

-..if you like to be trendy.

-Let's start with frills.

-We mentioned this in winter.

-Frills are very fashionable.

-You can wear them

-in a simple blouse.

-This has frills from top to bottom

-but it looks wonderful.

-Be aware of frills...

-..that stretch across the body

-from one arm to the other.

-They can make you look much wider.

-Oh, excuse me!

-Let's move down to the trousers.

-These aren't just loose-fitting.

-Patterned trousers

-are incredibly fashionable.

-I'd like to tell our viewers that

-they can opt for refined patterns...

-..but the bold, busy patterns are

-the best.

-It's a bit early in the season

-to wear them whilst out shopping.

-The weather is deceiving.

-Yes, so you could wear them out

-in the evening instead.

-If you're dining out...

-..wear them with a black blouse

-and leather jacket.

-Make the most of your new clothes

-as the weather is so unpredictable.

-The seasons have long gone.

-If you buy something new...

-..you should wear it now so opt

-for patterns with black or navy.

-The third thing is a statement bag.

-That's a lovely colour.

-This week, Anya Hindmarch who is

-famous for designing accessories...

-..has designed a bag...

-..that is exactly the same as the

-large plastic bags that hold duvets.

-Carys Tudor had a duvet bag a

-fortnight ago with the rope handle.

-The designer bag is over 2,000!

-I'd advise you

-to buy something ordinary and big!

-A statement bag should be big

-and something people will notice.

-This one is perfect

-and only 39 from Marks and Spencer.

-It's an eye-catching colour

-and size.

-The style is simple

-so it won't date.

-What's next, Huw?

-We've got some lace.

-Lace is often seen in the winter.

-In the summer,

-we have the broderie anglaise.

-This is a lace blouse.

-A lot of shops and designers

-don't sell them with a lining.

-You can go without a lining if you

-have confidence and pert breasts!

-I doubt our viewers will do that.

-I've got a few vests.

-Yes, I chose a white vest but you

-can opt for a flesh-coloured vest.

-Lace is everywhere at the moment.

-It can be blouses

-or just sections on garments.

-I'm sure our viewers

-have lace garments.

-It's often the case that old clothes

-that are dubbed as vintage...

-..are reproduced for a new season.

-Next, we've got linen trousers

-that are in all the shops.

-This is the time to freshen up

-the items you have at home.

-Take them out, give them a wash

-and hang them up.

-Add a touch of fabric softener

-when washing them.

-Prepare them for the summer.

-Let's move to denim.

-I like denim.

-You could simply wear a denim jacket

-of denim jeans with a white t-shirt.

-This garment scores on two levels.

-Tunics are very fashionable

-and all over the high street.

-You could do the same thing

-if you're buying something new.

-Buy a tunic like this one but

-make sure that it's a cotton mix.

-This isn't the denim you get

-in your jeans.

-It's denim-coloured cotton.

-Normal denim very solid and firm.

-It would also be very warm

-during the sunny weather.

-Tunics are very fashionable and

-can be a tropical pattern or denim.

-Where is that from?

-Where is that from?

-

-It's from Monsoon.

-All these items are from Monsoon,

-H&M and Marks and Spencer.

-I want to close with two items.

-They refer to these

-as statement jackets...

-..but I've mentioned the importance

-of floral prints in the past.

-This is a floral print

-statement jacket.

-It features soft colours

-so can be worn with anything!

-I've kept it simple with

-white trousers and the pink blouse.

-It could be worn

-with something red, green or pink.

-There are statement jackets

-and statement shoes.

-You'll either be wearing

-flat shoes...

-..with a pointed toe.

-The other option is the block heels.

-Block heels make you feel much

-more solid or so I'm told.

-I've never worn them myself!

-You feel much safer in them...

-..and a block heel gives you

-that vintage look too.

-These mean you keep up with the

-trends and the popular vintage look.

-That was a wonderful variety.

-There's a little bit of everything

-out there.

-The weather's improving

-to get shopping!

-Thank you, Huw.

-Another programme

-has come to an end.

-I'll be back again next week.

-Until then,

-keep practicing your Welsh.

-It's important to try

-but have plenty of fun too.

-A very good morning to you all.
