0:07:48 > 0:07:51- We went to the Welsh Office...

0:07:57 > 0:08:00- I spoke to the appeals committees...

0:08:00 > 0:08:05- ..and suggested that they were kept - in order to serve the community...

0:08:06 > 0:08:08- ..and the initiative was born.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29- Is it Brecon?- - Yes, you're right. It's Pen y Fan.

0:18:30 > 0:18:30- Tryfan?

0:18:30 > 0:18:31- Tryfan?- - Correct.

0:18:31 > 0:18:35- Congratulations, - you had three out of three.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37- You had all three correct.

0:18:37 > 0:18:39- Congratulations and well done.

0:18:40 > 0:18:44- I'm not very good - when it comes to mountains.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47- I'm delighted with that result.

0:18:47 > 0:18:50- Well done to the people - of Llanberis.

0:18:50 > 0:18:55- One image was of Pen y Fan, the - highest point in the Brecon Beacons.

0:18:58 > 0:19:04- Pen y Fan is an hour from Cardiff - and has many paths to reach the top.

0:19:07 > 0:19:11- I wrote the chapters in this book...

0:19:12 > 0:19:15- ..that concentrated - on the Brecon Beacons.

0:19:15 > 0:19:19- I'm very familiar with the area - so decided to start with Pen y Fan.

0:19:20 > 0:19:25- It's probably the highest and - most famous mountain in the area.

0:19:25 > 0:19:29- I wanted to find a path - with the most striking scenery.

0:19:29 > 0:19:33- It's the route from the north.

0:19:33 > 0:19:38- The summit is an incredible place - and boasts some fantastic views.

0:19:38 > 0:19:40- From these summits...

0:19:40 > 0:19:45- ..you can see the summits - of Corn Du, Cribyn, Pen y Fan...

0:19:45 > 0:19:49- ..and all the mountains - within the Brecon Beacons.

0:19:51 > 0:19:55- As an author of two of the chapters - in the book...

0:19:55 > 0:19:59- ..I hope that people will buy, - read and enjoy it...

0:19:59 > 0:20:04- ..but more importantly, that they - walk the glorious Welsh mountains.

0:20:14 > 0:20:18- Our next stop this morning - is Caernarfon Airport.

0:20:18 > 0:20:22- It's recently enjoyed - some exciting developments.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25- Owain Gwynedd tells us more.

0:20:30 > 0:20:35- Most of you know - that I love sports...

0:20:35 > 0:20:38- ..and rugby more than anything.

0:20:38 > 0:20:43- Few of you might know that - I have a rather different hobby.

0:20:43 > 0:20:46- Have you guessed yet?

0:20:47 > 0:20:48- Yes, it's flying planes.

0:20:49 > 0:20:54- I've come back to Caernarfon Airport - to where I first learnt to fly.

0:20:55 > 0:20:59- It's been eight years - since my first lesson...

0:20:59 > 0:21:04- ..and six years since earning - my licence which I'm renewing now.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06- Unbeknown to me...

0:21:07 > 0:21:11- ..the former RAF Llandwrog - has an interesting history.

0:21:11 > 0:21:16- The airport was established in 1941 - during the war.

0:21:16 > 0:21:20- It was primarily founded - to teach navigators...

0:21:20 > 0:21:23- ..and pilots to fly Avro Ansons.

0:21:23 > 0:21:27- As the war progressed, - they moved into training gunners.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30- When the war ended...

0:21:31 > 0:21:34- ..there was a lot - of surplus ammunition...

0:21:34 > 0:21:36- ..that needed to be scrapped.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39- They brought it all to Caernarfon...

0:21:39 > 0:21:43- ..loaded it onto ships...

0:21:43 > 0:21:48- ..to be taken out - and dumped in the ocean.

0:21:48 > 0:21:53- The Mountain Rescue team was also - established during World War II.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56- The base has changed completely...

0:21:57 > 0:22:01- ..thanks to Ray Mckenzie-Blythe - and his trips around Snowdonia.

0:22:01 > 0:22:07- Over the last six years, the changes - are evident for all to see.

0:22:07 > 0:22:11- The original main building - and tower stood on this very spot.

0:22:12 > 0:22:17- Today, there's a brand-new tower, - a shed for all the microlights...

0:22:17 > 0:22:22- ..two massive windmills - that power the complex...

0:22:22 > 0:22:28- ..and a very grand main building - where everyone learns how to fly.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33- The investment - has changed the site for the better.

0:22:33 > 0:22:36- The Air Ambulance - and Mountain Rescue teams land here.

0:22:37 > 0:22:41- They've modernized the control tower - and other buildings.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43- We have three schools.

0:22:43 > 0:22:48- We have one for planes, - one for helicopters...

0:22:48 > 0:22:50- ..and one for microlights.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52- Why do you enjoy flying?

0:22:52 > 0:22:55- It's the freedom - to fly whenever I want.

0:22:55 > 0:22:59- I can go over the mountains, - the lakes, the River Menai...

0:22:59 > 0:23:02- ..and over the sea too.

0:23:02 > 0:23:07- I see my home, workplace and homes - of friends from a new perspective.

0:23:08 > 0:23:09- I never tire of it.

0:23:10 > 0:23:14- You won't get bored - on a trip to this airport...

0:23:14 > 0:23:18- ..as you can enjoy a cuppa - and visit the onsite museum.

0:23:20 > 0:23:21- Look at what I've found.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25- I've come to Caernarfon Airport - for eight years...

0:23:25 > 0:23:29- ..and I didn't know - they had a helicopter simulator.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32- It looks fantastic - so I have to have a go!

0:23:34 > 0:23:38- If flying helicopters - isn't your thing...

0:23:38 > 0:23:41- ..and before you ask, - no, I wasn't very good...

0:23:41 > 0:23:47- ..there's another simulator - for jets and Formula 1 cars.

0:23:47 > 0:23:51- It's a glorious day - so we've got to take to the skies.

0:23:51 > 0:23:56- But you're coming with me so we need - to have Dan, a professional pilot.

0:23:56 > 0:23:56- Dan, say hello.

0:23:56 > 0:23:58- Dan, say hello.- - Hello!

0:23:58 > 0:23:59- Let's go!

0:24:01 > 0:24:07- It's exciting to travel down the - runway and climb higher and higher.

0:24:07 > 0:24:12- As Aled said, seeing your home from - a unique perspective is incredible.

0:24:13 > 0:24:16- Everything is just - a stone's throw away.

0:24:17 > 0:24:20- And there you go, - it's as easy as that!

0:24:20 > 0:24:25- It was a trip to Porthmadog and back - to admire the stunning scenery.

0:24:25 > 0:24:30- I'd recommend anyone to take - a flight over your local area.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32- I loved it!

0:24:44 > 0:24:48- It's time for another break but - in the next part of the programme...

0:24:49 > 0:24:53- ..there's the latest - high street fashion from Huw Rees.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57- We've also got - a bread and butter pudding.

0:24:58 > 0:24:59- Join me in a few minutes.

0:25:02 > 0:25:02- .

0:25:06 > 0:25:06- Subtitles

0:25:06 > 0:25:08- Subtitles- - Subtitles

0:25:11 > 0:25:13- Welcome back.

0:25:13 > 0:25:18- The days have got colder and the - nights are starting to draw in.

0:25:18 > 0:25:22- At this time of year, - nothing beats some woollen cloths.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25- Huw has got some ideas for us.

0:25:25 > 0:25:30- We're focusing on the colour - of mustard and woollen clothes.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33- The mustard - is prominent in this outfit.

0:25:33 > 0:25:36- Yes, but you can ditch the mustard - here.

0:25:37 > 0:25:39- It's quite easy - to get fed up of a colour.

0:25:40 > 0:25:44- By spending something like - 22 or 25 on a scarf...

0:25:44 > 0:25:48- ..you can put it in the drawer - and keep it for next year...

0:25:48 > 0:25:53- ..whereas people want to get - some wear out of specific garment.

0:25:53 > 0:25:58- This is a lovely scarf and - looks like it was knitted at home.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01- We spoke about items - causing you to itch.

0:26:01 > 0:26:04- This is a long scarf - that you'll wrap around you...

0:26:04 > 0:26:08- ..so it's important - that it doesn't make you itch.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11- I wear scarves quite low - to stop this.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14- Make sure they feel good - next to your skin.

0:26:14 > 0:26:18- Cheaper scarves tend to contain - more acrylic and less wool...

0:26:18 > 0:26:21- ..which means that you get - that crackle too.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24- It isn't too bad for the ladies...

0:26:24 > 0:26:30- ..but you get a lot of crackle - for those men growing a beard.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33- This looks great with the bag.

0:26:33 > 0:26:37- I'm not a matchy-matchy person - when it comes to clothes...

0:26:37 > 0:26:42- ..but I wanted to show that you can - get accessories instead of garments.

0:26:42 > 0:26:44- This is a lovely bag.

0:26:44 > 0:26:49- It's a colour that can be worn - with grey, navy, white, cream...

0:26:50 > 0:26:51- ..black and brown.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53- Keep going, Sian!

0:26:53 > 0:26:54- Keep going, Sian!- - The colours of the rainbow.

0:26:55 > 0:26:59- Yes, but it's the sort of colour - that lifts other shades.

0:26:59 > 0:27:01- If you have a plain outfit...

0:27:01 > 0:27:04- ..a coloured bag - can make it look more special.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07- I like the design of the bag too.

0:27:07 > 0:27:11- It's half chain and half leather - and can hold everything.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13- Small bags are going out of fashion.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17- Sorry, the large bags - are going out of fashion now.

0:27:18 > 0:27:22- If you invest in a small bag, make - sure it holds everything you need!

0:27:23 > 0:27:25- Some only hold a phone and purse.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28- It's a lovely dress too.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31- I wish there was wool in it - as it looks like tweed...

0:27:32 > 0:27:35- ..but I checked the label - and it doesn't contain wool.

0:27:35 > 0:27:39- It's a lovely texture - next to the knitted scarf.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41- Thank you very much.

0:27:41 > 0:27:47- Christine is next and wearing all - the different fabrics under the sun!

0:27:47 > 0:27:50- She's wearing a mustard cardigan.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53- When I concentrate - on a specific colour...

0:27:53 > 0:27:58- ..I try to show different ways - of wearing it to give you a choice.

0:27:58 > 0:28:01- The Marks and Spencer shop window...

0:28:01 > 0:28:04- ..has a lot of outfits - with hints of colour.

0:28:05 > 0:28:09- The outfits are generally grey - and black but have hints of colour.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11- That is what we have here.

0:28:11 > 0:28:15- There's a black polo neck - but it's sleeveless.

0:28:15 > 0:28:19- A lot of our viewers at home would - never want to go sleeveless...

0:28:19 > 0:28:25- ..but if you buy it to wear under - a cardigan, jacket or coat...

0:28:25 > 0:28:30- ..then it's great as you don't get - any bulkiness around the arms.

0:28:30 > 0:28:31- It sits much better...

0:28:32 > 0:28:35- ..especially if you have - a leatherette jacket...

0:28:35 > 0:28:39- ..because these tend to be - quite snug around the arms.

0:28:39 > 0:28:43- They look much better - with less layers on the arms.

0:28:43 > 0:28:45- It's teamed with a simple cardigan.

0:28:45 > 0:28:47- I think it's about 12.

0:28:47 > 0:28:51- No, it's 18 for the cardigan.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54- It has a smooth finish - and is a great colour.

0:28:54 > 0:29:00- I think it looks fantastic with the - trousers that are full of texture.

0:29:00 > 0:29:03- We've gone back to the patent shoes.

0:29:04 > 0:29:09- These are the same shoes as earlier - as they look great with this outfit.

0:29:09 > 0:29:13- All I've done then, is add the bag - to complete the outfit.

0:29:13 > 0:29:19- It has a chain strap and studs which - are very fashionable at the moment.

0:29:19 > 0:29:23- It's a leatherette jacket so does - that mean it isn't real leather?

0:29:24 > 0:29:26- It's faux leather... F-A-U-X.

0:29:26 > 0:29:30- It means that - there is nothing real about it.

0:29:30 > 0:29:34- You get faux leather, faux fur - and faux everything!

0:29:34 > 0:29:36- They look so real.

0:29:37 > 0:29:41- These days, you'll struggle to get a - real one without breaking the bank.

0:29:42 > 0:29:45- They are battling - against the faux ones.

0:29:45 > 0:29:47- Thank you very much.

0:29:48 > 0:29:53- The final outfit has been - put together in a very formal way.

0:29:53 > 0:29:57- I know what Sian - is going to say about this coat.

0:29:57 > 0:30:00- These coats - are reminiscent of the 1980s.

0:30:00 > 0:30:04- They were called duster coats - but then they went shorter.

0:30:05 > 0:30:07- Sian has obviously got one - in a wardrobe.

0:30:07 > 0:30:09- Yes, somewhere!

0:30:09 > 0:30:13- Angelica can open the coat to show - us that it doesn't have a lining.

0:30:14 > 0:30:16- It's great for this time of year.

0:30:16 > 0:30:20- But in the Amman Valley, we would - say that it has no substance!

0:30:20 > 0:30:24- You can see all the lumps and bumps - of the layers underneath.

0:30:25 > 0:30:30- If you're a plus size and wearing - a tight belt and you have a belly...

0:30:30 > 0:30:33- ..then you will see it - through the coat.

0:30:33 > 0:30:36- The lining isn't there - as an extra layer.

0:30:36 > 0:30:39- But it's 50 and from H&M.

0:30:39 > 0:30:43- You don't shop in H&M - for the quality of their clothes.

0:30:43 > 0:30:46- We go there - for up-to-the-minute fashion.

0:30:46 > 0:30:51- This is a recreation of something - that appeared on the catwalk.

0:30:51 > 0:30:55- There's a touch of mustard in the - coat and a gorgeous lace dress.

0:30:56 > 0:30:58- It's fantastic in the build up to...

0:30:58 > 0:31:00- Yes, we know.

0:31:00 > 0:31:01- Christmas!

0:31:02 > 0:31:04- We're going back to Christmas.

0:31:04 > 0:31:09- You've given us plenty of ideas - for a serene colour for the autumn.

0:31:11 > 0:31:12- Thank you, Huw.

0:31:12 > 0:31:17- Bread and butter pudding has to be - one of my favourite dishes.

0:31:17 > 0:31:20- Nothing beats an old favourite.

0:31:20 > 0:31:25- That's what they made on Prynhawn Da - last week.

0:31:25 > 0:31:28- A bread and butter pudding - with orange.

0:31:28 > 0:31:31- You can have - whatever you like in it.

0:31:31 > 0:31:33- It's a traditional pudding.

0:31:33 > 0:31:37- I remember bread and butter pudding - with custard in school.

0:31:38 > 0:31:41- It's nice to add - a different flavour to it.

0:31:41 > 0:31:44- Yes, and it's good - to think outside of the box.

0:31:44 > 0:31:49- How can we make the bread and butter - pudding a little bit different?

0:31:49 > 0:31:53- We start in the traditional way - by making the custard.

0:31:54 > 0:31:58- I've got three whole eggs - in this bowl.

0:31:58 > 0:32:02- You also need an extra egg yolk.

0:32:02 > 0:32:05- This helps to give a richer custard.

0:32:05 > 0:32:10- This goes in there like that - and put this out of the way.

0:32:10 > 0:32:13- And give it a good whisk.

0:32:13 > 0:32:17- That's one part - of the custard-making process.

0:32:17 > 0:32:19- The other part is the milk.

0:32:19 > 0:32:21- You need 300ml of milk.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23- Is that full fat milk?

0:32:23 > 0:32:27- Yes, don't go out and buy it - but use what you have at home.

0:32:27 > 0:32:31- Next, add the same amount - of double cream...

0:32:31 > 0:32:35- ..so it's pointless cutting down - on the fat in the milk!

0:32:35 > 0:32:40- This is left to warm through - and we'll add some vanilla to it.

0:32:40 > 0:32:44- You can scrape out the seeds - from a vanilla pod...

0:32:44 > 0:32:47- ..or make life easier - for yourself...

0:32:47 > 0:32:50- ..by just adding - some of the vanilla essence.

0:32:50 > 0:32:52- Are they both the same?

0:32:52 > 0:32:53- Are they both the same?- - Yes, exactly the same.

0:32:53 > 0:32:58- Vanilla essence is about 6 a bottle - and it's about 1 for a pod.

0:32:58 > 0:33:01- You can keep it in the cupboard - until next time.

0:33:02 > 0:33:03- Yes, exactly.

0:33:03 > 0:33:05- Simply warm this through.

0:33:05 > 0:33:07- Next, we combine them.

0:33:07 > 0:33:12- Never ever add the eggs - to the hot milk mixture...

0:33:12 > 0:33:15- ..or the eggs will scramble.

0:33:15 > 0:33:17- I like scrambled eggs.

0:33:17 > 0:33:20- Yes, but you don't want it - in a custard!

0:33:20 > 0:33:25- This was warmed earlier - to get it to the right temperature.

0:33:25 > 0:33:27- It needs to be gently simmering.

0:33:28 > 0:33:32- Milk boils over very easily - and makes a lot of mess.

0:33:32 > 0:33:35- Slowly whisk it into the eggs.

0:33:36 > 0:33:37- You add a little bit at a time.

0:33:37 > 0:33:39- You add a little bit at a time.- - Yes, that's right.

0:33:39 > 0:33:44- Don't worry if it doesn't thicken - as it will be baked later.

0:33:44 > 0:33:49- I'd want it to thicken if I was - serving it with the pudding...

0:33:49 > 0:33:52- ..so I'd return it to the hob - in a clean pan...

0:33:52 > 0:33:56- ..to cook it thoroughly.

0:33:56 > 0:33:58- This one is ready.

0:33:58 > 0:34:04- The next stage is where - we can go a little off-piste.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07- As opposed to using - normal buttered bread...

0:34:07 > 0:34:13- ..you could use a currant bun or - brioche or a combination of the two.

0:34:13 > 0:34:18- Old buns that have gone stale - are also ideal for this recipe.

0:34:18 > 0:34:22- I won't go as far - as blue, mouldy crusts...

0:34:22 > 0:34:27- ..but any dry buns - or bread is perfect.

0:34:27 > 0:34:30- These slices - can be cut into triangles.

0:34:30 > 0:34:32- You've buttered every slice.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35- Is that on both sides or just one?

0:34:36 > 0:34:40- I've buttered one side but some - recipes say to butter both sides...

0:34:41 > 0:34:44- ..but I'm not doing this - because I'm adding orange.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46- There's two ways to do this.

0:34:46 > 0:34:50- The pudding in the oven - contains orange segments.

0:34:50 > 0:34:53- I've simply added orange segments - from a tin.

0:34:54 > 0:34:55- I can't remember the name!

0:34:56 > 0:34:58- It's the mandarin segments.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00- They are placed between the slices.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02- This is another option.

0:35:03 > 0:35:05- Let me get a clean knife.

0:35:05 > 0:35:08- Spread marmalade - between the slices...

0:35:08 > 0:35:11- ..and layer them in the dish.

0:35:12 > 0:35:15- Add as much as you like - depending on your preference.

0:35:16 > 0:35:19- You could do this - with any fruit jam...

0:35:20 > 0:35:22- ..such as strawberry jam.

0:35:22 > 0:35:26- Should you do it - so that the jam faces upwards?

0:35:26 > 0:35:31- It's placed butter-side-down to - stop it from sticking to the dish.

0:35:31 > 0:35:34- I've made some of these at home.

0:35:34 > 0:35:38- Puddings can be problematic - when it comes to serving them.

0:35:38 > 0:35:42- They never look neat - and are always messy.

0:35:42 > 0:35:46- You can prevent this by taking a tip - from the restaurants.

0:35:46 > 0:35:49- They have individual dishes...

0:35:49 > 0:35:54- ..and serve puddings individually - so that it looks better.

0:35:54 > 0:35:57- The same is true for a fish pie.

0:35:57 > 0:36:01- It looks much neater - when served in an individual dish.

0:36:01 > 0:36:05- We've completed that stage - of the pudding.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08- I've got some interesting things - over here.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11- There's a Madeira wine...

0:36:12 > 0:36:17- ..and an orange and vanilla liqueur - which is ideal for this recipe.

0:36:17 > 0:36:21- Sprinkle it over the top - so this isn't for children!

0:36:21 > 0:36:25- It was suitable for children - until that stage.

0:36:25 > 0:36:28- But you can make it - suitable for children.

0:36:28 > 0:36:30- You can adapt it for the children.

0:36:31 > 0:36:33- Individual pots are ideal for that.

0:36:34 > 0:36:39- You could replace it with one of the - popular flavoured coffee syrups.

0:36:39 > 0:36:42- There's caramel or vanilla.

0:36:42 > 0:36:44- You can get a cinnamon flavour.

0:36:44 > 0:36:49- Yes, a Christmas, autumnal - or pumpkin spice flavour.

0:36:49 > 0:36:51- These do not contain alcohol.

0:36:51 > 0:36:53- What goes on top?

0:36:53 > 0:36:56- Simply pour the custard - over the top.

0:36:56 > 0:36:57- Oh, yum!

0:36:57 > 0:37:01- I don't fill it to the top - as I like the crispy edges.

0:37:02 > 0:37:04- I really enjoy those pieces.

0:37:04 > 0:37:06- Here's one I made earlier.

0:37:06 > 0:37:07- How long does it need?

0:37:07 > 0:37:09- How long does it need?- - It's baked for 30 minutes.

0:37:09 > 0:37:12- You'd be surprised - at how long it takes to bake.

0:37:12 > 0:37:16- Let me put it over here - for the camera to see it.

0:37:16 > 0:37:17- I've already got my fork.

0:37:17 > 0:37:18- I've already got my fork.- - Me too!

0:37:19 > 0:37:24- It's warmed through - so I'll cut you a big slab to try.

0:37:25 > 0:37:27- Yes, why not?!

0:37:27 > 0:37:29- Whilst you plate up...

0:37:29 > 0:37:34- ..Sian Thomas has arrived - just in time for some pudding.

0:37:34 > 0:37:39- This one has got Baileys in it - and it's delicious.

0:37:39 > 0:37:40- Is it nice?

0:37:40 > 0:37:43- Is it nice?- - It's scrumptious!

0:37:43 > 0:37:45- This is delicious with the orange.

0:37:45 > 0:37:47- Tuck in, Sian.

0:37:47 > 0:37:50- It's wonderful - and great after the brisket.

0:37:51 > 0:37:53- We've had two great recipes.

0:37:54 > 0:37:55- How long would this keep?

0:37:55 > 0:37:58- How long would this keep?- - You should eat it on the same day.

0:37:58 > 0:37:59- I doubt it would last that long!

0:37:59 > 0:38:01- I doubt it would last that long!- - Make enough for one meal.

0:38:01 > 0:38:04- It wouldn't last in my house.

0:38:05 > 0:38:10- You can watch this morning's items - again on Clic or the iPlayer.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35- We start with my primary school.

0:39:35 > 0:39:40- I was lucky and we must remember - that Flintshire is on the border.

0:39:40 > 0:39:43- I was educated - through the medium of Welsh.

0:39:44 > 0:39:48- It was one of the first Welsh - medium schools in Flintshire...

0:39:48 > 0:39:51- ..along with schools - in Rhyl and Mold.

0:40:02 > 0:40:03- Was there ten?

0:40:03 > 0:40:06- Was there ten?- - No, they couldn't get ten.

0:40:06 > 0:40:11- This was quite an achievement - all those years ago.

0:40:11 > 0:40:15- Did people have faith - in a Welsh medium education?

0:40:15 > 0:40:18- I remember that - a number of Welsh speakers...

0:40:18 > 0:40:23- ..failed to understand the need - for a Welsh school in Flintshire...

0:40:23 > 0:40:25- ..that was so close to the border.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28- I'm delighted to tell you this.

0:40:28 > 0:40:34- From that eight, four of us - are still the very best of friends.

0:40:34 > 0:40:39- Our teacher was Miss Lisa Rowlands - from Parc in Bala.

0:40:39 > 0:40:42- She later became Lisa Erfyl.

0:40:42 > 0:40:45- She was like a mother to us all.

0:40:46 > 0:40:48- I do think I was very lucky.

0:40:48 > 0:40:51- I wish my parents - were alive today...

0:40:51 > 0:40:55- ..to see the developments - in Welsh medium education...

0:40:55 > 0:40:58- ..with schools - popping up everywhere.

0:40:58 > 0:41:02- We lived in a difficult time when - we had to fight for our language.

0:41:02 > 0:41:06- I went to this year's - Urdd Eisteddfod in Flintshire...

0:41:06 > 0:41:09- ..and saw a successful Eisteddfod.

0:41:09 > 0:41:11- Times have changed.

0:41:11 > 0:41:14- Yes, and there's a Welsh school - in Shotton.

0:41:14 > 0:41:19- In the past, Shotton - may as well have been in England!

0:41:19 > 0:41:24- We could spend the afternoon talking - about the school in Flintshire...

0:41:24 > 0:41:26- ..and enjoy every second...

0:42:06 > 0:42:10- I have to say that in the days - before the National Curriculum...

0:42:11 > 0:42:12- ..it was a lot of fun.

0:42:13 > 0:42:15- We had about 150 to 200 children.

0:42:15 > 0:42:18- Many of them - were non-Welsh speaking.

0:42:18 > 0:42:20- I remember thinking...

0:42:20 > 0:42:26- ..that the way to get these - children to learn and speak Welsh...

0:42:26 > 0:42:30- ..was to get them involved - in a show.

0:42:30 > 0:42:34- I also spent time in Maes Garmon.

0:42:34 > 0:42:37- We performed the show, Oliver - for the first time.
