-Hello and welcome to Bore Da

-on the morning of Sunday 12 March.

-I hope you're ready to

-put your feet up for the next hour.

-This is what we have for you

-between now and 11.50am.

-Rhodri Owen celebrates

-St David's Day at 10 Downing Street.

-We mark 70 years since Ysgol Gymraeg

-Dewi Sant opened its doors.

-I'll visit a brand-new

-Welsh language centre...

-..called Y Man A'r Lle in Cardigan.

-Daf Wyn goes folk dancing

-with the Adran Bro Taf group.

-Make yourself comfortable

-and enjoy the coming hour.

-Welcome, once again, to Bore Da.

-Last week, the whole of Wales

-was celebrating St David's Day.

-Celebrations were also held...

-..at Paddington Station

-and 10 Downing Street.

-Rhodri Owen went to London

-to join the celebrations.

-# All hail! Atoning blood #

-I've got the honour

-of celebrating 1 March in London...

-..and Paddington Station is

-having a day that's fit for a king!

-There's Welsh delicacies

-and some singing.

-# Wash me, cleanse me in the blood

-# That flowed on Calvary #

-It's wonderful being

-a member of the London Welsh...

-..to sing the classical Welsh songs,

-Welsh hymns and new material.

-We had a brilliant response.

-We're singing today and promoting

-Wales in the heart of London.

-After 15 years of being in London...

-..it's great to sing in Welsh

-with Welsh lads.

-# Sing all day

-# And all evening #

-Wales is leaving her mark

-on Paddington...

-..and there's all sorts of food.

-There's Welsh chocolate,

-Tregroes Waffles, Gower Brownies...

-..Welshcakes, Bara Brith

-and there's daffodils everywhere!

-We've crossed London

-after receiving a unique invitation.

-Welcome to 10 Downing Street!

-All I was going to say to you is

-a happy St David's Day!

-It's a pleasure to invite so many

-from Wales to 10 Downing Street.

-We need to celebrate...

-..and show that Wales differs from

-the other countries in the UK...

-..whilst also celebrating

-a united nation.

-This is a fantastic platform

-for Wales to sell to the world.

-I'm delighted to have

-the opportunity to be here.

-You must welcome these celebrations.

-It's great that Wales

-is being acknowledged as a nation...

-..with her own patron saint,

-history, language and culture.

-A group of school children

-from South Wales is singing for us.

-The Prime Minister

-can see what Wales can offer....

-..and sample our wine

-and delicacies.

-The Welsh don't always

-sing their own praises...

-..and we need to be more prominent

-as a nation outside of Wales.

-It's amazing to be here to watch

-the Heol y March Choir singing.

-They are all very excited.

-I'm really excited to be here with

-the choir as it's a great group.

-I doubt I'll ever come here again.

-What do you think

-of 10 Downing Street?

-Oh, it's posh and it's great to

-think that Theresa May lives here!

-It's grand and beautiful.

-There's a lot of important people

-here so it's a great experience.

-This is unforgettable and

-it's taking time for it to sink in.

-It's very surreal

-and I never expected to be here.

-I'm so excited now!

-It's great to be at 10 Downing

-Street on St David's Day...

-..to sing Welsh songs with the choir

-at this amazing reception.

-# With the wind blowing to its door

-# Each morning #

-APPLAUSE

-That's what I call

-an unforgettable day.

-Breakfast is said to be

-the most important meal of the day.

-Last Tuesday

-was National Cereal Day.

-Alison Huw has a few tips

-for the perfect breakfast.

-Every person will eat about

-7kg of cereal every year.

-The tradition of eating cereals

-dates back 200 years...

-..to the Temperance Movement.

-They thought eating fatty meat

-was an awful way to start the day...

-..and that it was best to start

-each day with some cereal.

-I enjoy Weetabix,

-because they taste nice with sugar.

-My favourite cereal is Benefit...

-..because it's full of vitamins

-and dried fruit and tastes great.

-I like Fruit 'N' Fibre

-as it's low in sugar.

-Coco Pops, Rice Krispies

-and Corn Flakes.

-My favourite cereal is Corn Flakes

-because it's tasty.

-There's an interesting story behind

-the cockerel on the Kellogg's box.

-The Welsh harpist, Nansi Richards

-visited Mr Kellogg in America.

-She said the Welsh word

-for cockerel was "ceiliog"...

-..and it sounded like Kellogg.

-A cockerel singing in the morning

-was ideal for the front of the box.

-It was a great way

-to market the cereal.

-My favourite cereal is Shreddies as

-it keeps me going until lunchtime.

-Rice Krispies

-is my favourite cereal...

-..because they're tasty

-and full of vitamins.

-I usually have porridge

-for breakfast...

-..with some fruit on the top.

-My favourite is Weetabix with milk.

-The milk gives me calcium and

-the Weetabix provides some fibre.

-I enjoy Rice Krispies

-because they snap!

-In the winter, I like to eat

-porridge because it makes me warm.

-I tend to have porridge

-in the winter...

-..because oats release energy

-in the body slowly during the day.

-But in the summer,

-I choose bircher muesli...

-..which is a combination of oats,

-yoghurt, fruit and seeds.

-Some cereals have the same amount of

-sugar as three chocolate biscuits...

-..and the same amount of salt

-as a bag of crisps.

-Having said that, it's a great way

-to start a day but choose carefully.

-Opt for cereals

-that contain less sugar and salt...

-..as some cereals contain

-important vitamins and minerals.

-Oh, I want some breakfast now!

-You may remember a recent story

-called the Save Nicola Fund...

-..that we featured on Bore Da.

-Nicola urgently needs

-specialist cancer treatment.

-Last Saturday, a special evening

-had been organized...

-..with the aim of reaching

-the target of 75,000.

-The Save Nicola Fund

-has already reached over 40,000...

-..but the target is 75,000...

-..so they are holding a concert

-in Burry Port to help the appeal.

-Every ticket has been sold.

-There's going to be

-plenty of singing tonight.

-EXCERPTS OF OPERATIC ARIAS

-Tonight pays tribute

-to my dear friend, Nicola White.

-We were raised together

-on the same street in Pembrey.

-Nicola has suffered a lot

-during her life.

-It's important for us all

-to come together like this...

-..to help her get the treatment

-she needs to beat the cancer.

-By holding this concert tonight...

-..I feel that I can make a

-personal contribution to the cause.

-We're close

-to the target of 75,000.

-A lot of people

-from the Burry Port area are here.

-They really want to help

-raise the funds for Nicola.

-There's a lot going on here tonight

-so I hope we'll have a great time.

-A wealth of talent

-will take to the stage tonight.

-It's all in aid of Nicola

-so it will be a wonderful evening.

-Gary phoned me one night

-a few weeks ago...

-..and asked if I could sing

-at Burry Port.

-I said "Yes, of course!"

-My father needed the same treatment

-as Nicola...

-..but he couldn't have it...

-..so I felt that this was my chance

-to do something good tonight.

-The campaign is very close

-to our hearts at the school.

-Her son is a former pupil and is in

-Ysgol Y Strade and Ava is in Year 3.

-# We give thanks to our Lord God

-# For all the children #

-How long have you been rehearsing?

-How long have you been rehearsing?

-

-We've been rehearsing all week.

-How many songs are you performing?

-How many songs are you performing?

-

-Um, a lot.

-Are you excited?

-Are you excited?

-

-Yes.

-Yes.

-Are you going to raise the roof?

-Are you going to raise the roof?

-

-We'll definitely try.

-# Hosanna, in the highest #

-There was plenty

-of quality singing...

-..as soloists and choirs

-entertained the crowd.

-Everyone enjoyed themselves

-and the donations poured in.

-It was a spectacular night

-of entertainment.

-It was an incredible night

-with a wealth of talent.

-Everyone gave their all...

-..and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

-There's talent in Burry Port

-and you can't get any better.

-OPERATIC DUET

-There was a great atmosphere

-and the church was packed.

-I think they sold over 300 tickets.

-They're set to raise a lot of money

-which makes it all worthwhile.

-It's amazing to see the support

-from all over South Wales.

-Both towns have responded

-like one big community.

-They've done a fantastic job

-and I hope they reach the target.

-GERMAN ARIA

-It's been really, really fun.

-A fun night.

-I'm overwhelmed

-with the turnout tonight.

-Everyone's telling me it's for me

-and it's a bit overwhelming.

-I'm so happy and so grateful.

-Thank you very much.

-# Hosanna

-# To the King #

-RAPTUOUS APPLAUSE

-That looked like

-a wonderful evening.

-Good luck to Nicola and the team

-in their campaign to raise 75,000.

-That's all for now but

-in the next part of the programme...

-..we wish a very happy birthday

-to Ysgol Dewi Sant in Llanelli...

-..as it marks 70 years.

-Gerallt Pennant visits

-a new records shop in Caernarfon.

-Gwion Dafydd also has some tips

-on saving a penny or two!

-Grab a quick cuppa

-and join me in a few minutes.

-Welcome back.

-The county borough

-of Neath Port Talbot...

-..recently held a digital

-conference for Welsh schools...

-..on the theme of the future.

-Google, one of the largest companies

-in the world took part in the event.

-Google was eager to educate everyone

-on the benefits of virtual reality.

-Everyone loved it

-and had some memorable experiences.

-Ysgol Dewi Sant in Llanelli...

-..was the first

-Welsh language school in Wales.

-The school marked its 70th birthday

-on St David's Day this year.

-Our cameras joined the celebrations.

-One, two, three.

-# A very happy birthday to us #

-APPLAUSE

-The school is celebrating

-its 70th birthday.

-Today, we're taking pride

-in our school.

-We want to recreate the excitement

-that was in the town 70 years ago.

-The day starts with our assembly and

-every child will take part in it.

-It's a pleasure to be back.

-I spent twelve and a half

-happy years at the school.

-I worked closely with the staff,

-pupils, parents and governors...

-..and the local community...

-..to ensure the Welsh language

-played an important role.

-This is a special milestone

-in the history of the school.

-Seventy years ago, it had a mere

-34 pupils and three teachers...

-..and it was in

-the Sion Chapel Schoolroom.

-The school has grown

-over the years.

-It now has over 450 pupils

-and 56 members of staff.

-This is proof of its expansion.

-I left an English school and came to

-Ysgol Gymraeg Dewi Sant aged eight.

-Those first parents

-should be praised...

-..for sending their children

-to Ysgol Gymraeg Dewi Sant.

-In those days, they didn't know

-if it would be a success or not.

-I returned to the school

-as a teacher...

-..and have very fond memories.

-St David! St David!

-We'll walk to Sion Chapel,

-which is where the school started.

-It's a special day

-because we'll unveil a blue plaque.

-Two of the original pupils

-will unveil the plaque...

-..along with two

-of our present pupils.

-It will be quite an event.

-My favourite part

-was seeing the old teachers...

-..because we haven't seen them

-for a long time.

-What about you, Rhydian?

-My favourite part was singing on

-the way to the chapel as it was fun.

-At Dewi Sant, we've seen

-that parents' attitudes...

-..towards the language and culture

-has always been healthy.

-We're not worried about

-the school's future.

-There's still a strong demand

-for a Welsh medium education.

-It's very important to remember...

-..that people fought

-to have a Welsh school in the town.

-If we don't mark this milestone...

-..and teach the children

-about our history...

-..then it will all be forgotten.

-It was wonderful to return for the

-celebrations and see the children.

-These children are our future

-who will protect the language.

-I've enjoyed being with them today.

-# A very happy birthday

-# To Ysgol Dewi Sant #

-Yes, a very happy birthday

-to Ysgol Dewi Sant.

-We'll have a special song from

-the children later in the programme.

-Vinyl records

-are said to be making a comeback.

-People love collecting them...

-..and listen to their unique sound.

-A new vinyl shop

-has opened in Caernarfon.

-Gerallt Pennant has the story.

-Dyl Mei lives and breathes music.

-Everyone in the music world

-has seen many changes.

-But the vinyl record

-isn't going anywhere.

-From day to day,

-I devise the playlist...

-..for Tudur Owen, Huw Stephens

-and Geth a Ger.

-This music is from a computer,

-the Internet or the BBC system..

-When it comes

-to Tudur's programme...

-..and people talk about something

-interesting that they have heard...

-..it's usually something

-that I chose on vinyl.

-I think that vinyl brings colour...

-..to the black and white music

-you hear from day to day.

-Another sign

-of the popularity of vinyl...

-..is the opening of shops

-such as Big Trouble in Caernarfon.

-This is something

-I haven't done in a long time.

-Be careful now.

-Aled's obviously worried!

-OK?

-Doing this sort of thing...

-..is what makes Big Trouble

-stand out from the rest.

-I really enjoy coming here

-to have a good root around.

-I've found a lot of unexpected items

-that are real gems.

-It's also great to chat with Aled

-because he knows his music.

-It's wonderful to chat with someone

-in Welsh who has similar interests.

-How are you, Paul?

-How are you, Paul?

-

-Good thanks.

-Hi, Rhys.

-It's great to have a record shop

-on our own doorstep.

-Aled seems to discover items

-that I've never heard of before.

-It's a pleasure to come here.

-It makes listening to the records...

-..and learning about the artists

-all the more enjoyable.

-I remember my parents buying

-this Disc a Dawn vinyl record.

-Do you remember it in the house?

-Do you remember it in the house?

-

-Yes, and I remember the graphics.

-It's pure 1970s.

-It encapsulates the 1970s.

-This has stood the test of time

-thanks to Meic Stevens.

-You're an example of how to turn

-an interest into a business.

-Yes, I'd like to think so,

-but you have to be practical.

-I started eight years ago

-selling CDs and DVDs.

-Two years ago, I was offered

-thousands of records from America...

-..and they filled two rooms

-in my home...

-..so we decided to open a shop

-in Caernarfon.

-This Welsh record has a price tag

-of about 30.

-That's if it sells,

-but we hope it does.

-This is more recent

-but quite pricey.

-This is valuable

-and there's no doubt about it.

-It's from the second golden age

-of Welsh music.

-We entered the 1980s

-and music was punk and raw.

-Datblygu was an experimental band.

-Is it valuable?

-Is it valuable?

-

-I'm asking 100 for it.

-We'll wait and see what happens but

-it's certainly worth at least 50.

-People will want this.

-People will want this.

-

-Hopefully!

-One of my favourite vinyl records

-is Gwymon by Meic Stevens.

-I happened to acquire it

-through Heno.

-I was on the sofa in Llanelli.

-Angharad Mair asked which record

-I'd like in my collection.

-I said Gwymon by Meic Stevens

-and a viewer got in touch.

-We struck a deal

-and it's part of my collection now.

-I never thought I'd get it.

-It's brilliant as you never know

-what you're going to find.

-This brings us back to Al's shop

-in Caernarfon.

-He imports records from America.

-His shop is like an Aladdin's cave

-for collectors.

-Yes, it's vinyl all the way!

-Next, Gwion Dafydd

-from the company, Cardi...

-..has advice on saving money

-and grabbing a bargain.

-The example I've got

-is for Chanel No 5.

-That's lovely. I'm a huge fan.

-This 50ml bottle is priced at 74...

-..which is expensive

-but you're paying for the brand.

-You can search for it eBay.

-Don't tell the wife because

-this is where I get her perfume!

-We won't tell anyone about it.

-Search for it on eBay.

-You can get double the size

-so a 100ml bottle for 70.

-How do you know that

-this is the genuine perfume...

-..and not a fake?

-They can say anything they like

-in the description.

-Check the feedback and you're

-relatively safe if it's high.

-I also check that it's from Britain.

-Europe or China is fine but

-it's safer if you buy from Britain.

-Next, we have the

-very popular website of Quidco.

-I've been with Quidco

-for many years.

-On the right, you can see

-that I've saved over 1,000...

-..from using Quidco

-for shopping online.

-Simply enter something in the box

-on the right.

-I've used Expedia

-to look for a summer holiday.

-You can get 5% cashback

-on a holiday.

-You could spend 1,000 and

-get 50 cashback for doing nothing!

-Open the Quidco website,

-click on "Shop Now"...

-..and it takes you to the website

-that you would normally use.

-It's simple and you can find a link

-to it on @GwionCardi on Facebook.

-It's as simple as that!

-Regular shoppers in John Lewis

-know about the Price Match signs.

-What does it mean?

-It's much simpler than it sounds

-and it isn't that difficult.

-I've chosen a washing machine

-that's almost 500 in John Lewis.

-You can check its reviews

-and do your research.

-Search for the exact make and model

-of the machine on Google...

-..and it should give you

-a list on the right.

-If you can make a saving

-of about 40...

-..go back to John Lewis before

-buying and show them your findings.

-They don't always accept it

-if it's from a specialist website...

-..that doesn't have a physical shop

-on the high street.

-There's nothing wrong in checking.

-John Lewis does offer an extra year

-on the warranty.

-What about the savings you can make

-on energy bills?

-Yes, energy, television and Internet

-provision and car insurance.

-These websites are often advertised.

-I find uSwitch the easiest to use.

-It doesn't have the perks of a teddy

-such as Compare The Meerkat...

-..but it's simple.

-You get a step-by-step guide.

-It takes six or seven weeks

-for your energy provider to change.

-Keep an eye on your energy meter

-but it's relatively hassle-free.

-Apps are important to a lot of us

-in this day and age.

-You've got an app of the month.

-You've got an app of the month.

-

-Yes, that's right.

-A friend shared a link on Facebook

-so I took a look at it.

-It's called FreePrints.

-You download it to your iPad,

-tablet or mobile phone.

-Upload some pictures to it

-and they post them to you for free.

-For free?

-For free?

-

-Yes.

-Something isn't right

-so what's the catch?

-The catch is that you've got to

-stick to 45 photographs a month.

-That's 500 a year

-but you pay for extra ones.

-They come in a standard size

-so pay more for bigger copies.

-You only pay postage

-which is about 1.50.

-You could use your phone.

-Print them every month

-and you get them for free.

-Most people have their photographs

-on their phone or tablet.

-I'm going to try that.

-What about banks?

-Yes, two banks stand out at the

-moment if you want to change banks.

-Changing banks is easier

-than changing your energy supplier.

-It can all change over in a week.

-If you earn over 1,750 a month

-either as an individual or couple...

-..you get 150 for moving to HSBC.

-Stay with them for a year

-and keep paying direct debits...

-..to get an extra 50.

-If you don't earn as much...

-..you can get 110 if you switch

-to The Co-operative Bank...

-..and you can earn 5.50 cashback

-a month through the Co-op.

-Make sure there aren't

-any local branches...

-..but this is great

-if you don't mind online banking.

-Thank you.

-You've saved us some money already!

-That was some very useful advice

-from Gwion.

-It's time for a break but

-in the next part of the programme...

-..Lowri Steffan

-has spring-themed home furnishings.

-We also have the banjo of the

-late musician, Alun 'Sbardun' Huws.

-I'll see you back here

-in a few minutes.

-.

-Subtitles

-

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-We'll turn the clocks forward

-in a fortnight's time.

-Spring will have finally arrived...

-..but it's already arrived

-in our item on home furnishings.

-Lowri Steffan has some great advice.

-We found this first series of items

-in Dunelm.

-You can buy a set for a single bed

-starting from 18.

-You could just

-opt for the bed clothes...

-..or Dunelm is known for producing

-a series of items on one theme.

-You can buy cushions, a lamp shade

-and even some storage boxes.

-You can make it a story...

-..or just opt for the bed clothes.

-And there's even...

-That is Sian's favourite item.

-I can imagine watching television

-with both feet in one of those.

-Buy one in time to watch

-35 Diwrnod on Sunday.

-I suppose you could call it

-some sort of a foot muff.

-It's great for a night in front

-of the television.

-It matches the bed clothes

-so I suspect it's for the bedroom.

-Don't forget to take your feet out

-before you move.

-It looks like a massive slipper!

-Yes, and it's just 5.

-The great thing about the colour

-is it matches a lot of things.

-You could pick out

-the other colours.

-We've done that with the raspberry

-or dark pink cushions.

-Another option is for accessories

-in a pale cream...

-..like the heart-shaped frame

-from Marks and Spencer.

-It lightens the look and it's 12.

-The paler cream helps to alleviate

-the intensity of the pattern.

-You could stick

-to the same palette of colours...

-..and there's plenty of wallpapers

-to be had in these colours.

-I've chosen

-two different ones today.

-The one at the top features

-a lovely pattern with trees.

-The bottom one is more subtle.

-These start at 10 a roll

-from Dunelm.

-The bottom one isn't as busy...

-..and can be teamed

-with the bed clothes...

-..if you're a massive fan

-of the colour.

-It's ideal for an accent wall.

-It's ideal for an accent wall.

-

-Yes, exactly.

-Those are from Dunelm.

-Let's move to the front.

-I like those characters.

-In the build up to Easter...

-..you get a lot of ducks

-and rabbits.

-My favourite item is the plate.

-This plate is only 4 from Asda.

-It reminded me of a lot of the

-images that I see on the Internet.

-These days, it's very popular

-to hang plates on your walls.

-Do this with a collection of them.

-Find half a dozen different plates

-that vary in size and design...

-..but you could start

-with this pretty plate...

-..and build your collection

-from there.

-It would be lovely

-for a child's room.

-You love that duck too.

-Yes, and there's a lot of creatures

-and birds to be had.

-The table in the front...

-..has a collection of items

-with a delicate floral pattern.

-I really like the glass vase

-with the basket effect...

-..that runs with the natural theme.

-There's also a collection

-of crockery in the duck egg blue.

-It's a lovely colour.

-Yes, and it's great if you

-don't like too much pattern...

-..because it's embossed

-in the china.

-It comes in bowls, plates

-and ranges from 3.50 to 5.99.

-You can buy as many

-or as little as you want.

-Huw Fash would call it tasteful!

-We'll move into the lounge

-with this final area of items.

-I absolutely love the peacock

-ornament on the table.

-Can the camera pick it up?

-There's something

-very graceful about it.

-It's a perfect colour and only 11.

-It's all very pretty.

-Place it with something pale

-or glossy.

-It really brings out the colour.

-I like it a lot.

-It's only an ornament

-but a good price for an accessory.

-We've got a truck load of cushions.

-People often use the idea

-of combining patterns.

-You can team patterns

-that feature nature.

-The cushion in the front

-is 19.50 from Marks and Spencer.

-I mentioned this concept

-at the start.

-You can team natural colours

-with the duck egg blue...

-..such as the dark cream,

-brown or mustard yellow.

-This brings a different perspective

-to it all.

-That second cushion is from Asda

-and only 7.

-They vary in price so you can pay

-as much or as little as you want.

-You don't have to break the bank.

-It means that you haven't spent

-too much if you don't like it.

-Those were some lovely pieces.

-Thank you.

-Lowri chose some beautiful colours.

-Alun 'Sbardun' Huws...

-..was responsible for composing some

-of our most popular Welsh songs.

-Alun 'Sbardun' Huws

-died in December 2014...

-..and has left a massive gap.

-His wife has given all his

-instruments to Welsh musicians...

-..so that they can

-continue composing.

-Dewi Pws was given his banjo.

-He's learnt how to play

-the instrument.

-It's time for Dewi to give the banjo

-to another musician.

-# The lights ignite one by one

-# It's cosy here

-at the back of the Royal #

-I'm going to cut across

-the glorious sound of the banjo.

-You've only been playing the banjo

-for six months, Dewi.

-Yes, but I'm not very good but in

-a fortnight this man will be great!

-You can tell me about Chris

-in a moment.

-This was Sbardun's banjo and many of

-his instruments have been given out.

-Yes, a lot of his instruments have

-been given to prominent figures.

-I was lucky to get this banjo and

-I'd never thought about playing it.

-Tuds, Ems and Gwenno

-gave me the banjo...

-..so I went onto YouTube

-to learn how to play it.

-They also gave me

-this "Teach Yourself" book.

-I wanted something to remember

-Sbardun and his banjo.

-It isn't the best banjo

-but it's a fantastic place to start.

-I met Chris at Y Fic in Llithfaen

-and heard him singing.

-We had a chat and a pint or ten...

-..and he said

-he was interested in it.

-How does it feel

-to be given this banjo?

-It's a real honour.

-I've been wanting to learn

-to play the banjo for many years.

-This was an ideal opportunity

-to do that.

-You're a folk singer so how will you

-include the banjo in your music?

-We'll have to wait and see.

-I need to learn the basics...

-..and the picking first.

-We'll see how it develops.

-I was listening to you practicing

-earlier.

-Chris is going to be a real

-Bluegrass man!

-I saw him play guitar

-and he has a great style...

-..so he's signed the book to mark

-the journey of Sbardun's banjo!

-There's also the Sbardun Trophy for

-an original song at the Eisteddfod.

-The closing date is 1 April and it's

-for a song in the style of Sbardun.

-There's a trophy

-and a prize of 500.

-That's absolutely brilliant.

-We're also joined by some close

-friends of Alun 'Sbardun' Huws.

-I'll start with you.

-How does it feel to see his banjo

-being passed to another musician?

-He would have been delighted

-to be here himself to see it.

-He was a great man from Penrhyn.

-I have fond memories of him.

-We're in the Royal...

-..that was immortalized

-in the song Strydoedd Aberstalwm.

-Yes, and it's a pleasure for me

-to be here tonight...

-..to see Sbardun's instruments

-being passed around.

-It's also a great way

-to remember Sbardun.

-I have happy memories about him.

-He was interesting and mischievous.

-Yes, but I'm sure you'd all

-like to hear the banjo tonight.

-Let's return to Dewi and Chris.

-Will we have a duet between you two

-in six months or so?

-Yes, we'll try and I'm game for it!

-Are you game?

-Are you game?

-

-Yes, I am.

-It's been lovely to join you

-and good luck with that banjo.

-# A long, long time ago #

-Good luck to Chris

-as he learns to play the banjo.

-In the final part

-of today's programme...

-..I visit a new Welsh centre

-called Y Man A'r Lle in Cardigan.

-Daf Wyn is folk dancing

-with the Adran Bro Taf group.

-Ysgol Gymraeg Dewi Sant

-also sing for us.

-I'll see you back here

-in a few minutes.

-Welcome back.

-A new Welsh language centre

-has opened its doors in Cardigan.

-The centre is called Y Man A'r Lle.

-I visited it on a very busy day.

-Today, I'm in Cardigan

-to visit a brand-new centre...

-..called Y Man A'r Lle.

-The centre will host all sorts of

-activities in the Welsh language.

-We opened the site

-at the end of last October...

-..thanks to a grant for Welsh

-centres from the National Assembly.

-We set about building

-a new Welsh centre...

-..for Cardigan and the vicinity.

-The college also uses the centre...

-..as a site for our students

-to enjoy social activities...

-..through the medium of Welsh.

-The space is perfect

-for that purpose.

-I'm here today with my students...

-..to help the primary school

-to use this centre.

-The students are working

-with the primary school...

-..on various prints with the artist,

-Ruth Jen.

-It's my first time working

-in the centre and I've been shocked.

-It's a very smart place to visit

-and cover in paint!

-We've managed it and

-the children have been great today.

-It's wonderful for the children to

-leave the classroom and come here.

-It's important

-to have new experiences.

-Students are also helping me today.

-It's great that they can share

-resources with the college for this.

-Everyone has a new experience.

-I'm here to supervise

-the children today.

-I'm studying Childhood Development

-in Welsh at Coleg Ceredigion.

-This is a great experience

-and helps with my studies.

-We already host many events.

-Today, the college is expanding

-our program of activities...

-..by uniting

-various establishments...

-..and promoting

-Welsh language events.

-Thanks to Non and everyone else

-for the warm welcome.

-Next, we turn our attention

-to folk dancing.

-I've got two left feet...

-..so am glad Daf Wyn met with

-the Adran Bro Taf group and not me!

-You've been working

-on a special resource.

-Yes, we've tried to create

-a series of skills.

-Many skills in folk dancing

-are relevant to other dances.

-We've broken up those skills

-and showed them at a slow pace...

-..so that less confident teachers

-in Wales...

-..can use it to teach folk dancing

-in their schools.

-Let's take a look at the website.

-When you open the homepage, there's

-a promo video about the website...

-..with five PDF files

-for all the dances.

-Under those, you can find videos of

-the specific skills for each dance.

-It's quite interactive.

-It looks quite simple.

-There are five dances

-where the first is quite easy...

-..and dance number five

-is more challenging.

-It's great if you want a challenge!

-This is aimed at all schools

-across Wales.

-It's something educational

-but in a new medium.

-People can have fun

-and learn new skills.

-"Come and do some folk dancing"

-Beca and Gethin were in the films

-so what was it like?

-It was amazing.

-I think it will help a lot

-of schools as well as dance groups.

-Why do you enjoy folk dancing?

-I like folk dancing because

-it's a different genre of dance.

-I don't have many friends in school

-who enjoy folk dancing...

-..so this makes me stand out

-from the crowd.

-Will you tell people to visit

-the website and learn to folk dance?

-Yes, definitely.

-I enjoy your dancing so I'll let you

-go back to your rehearsals.

-You're preparing

-for the Urdd Eisteddfod.

-Yes, it's come around very quickly

-but it's going well so far.

-People should visit the website

-and learn some folk dancing!

-Don't forget about that website.

-That's all for today.

-The clock tells me

-that the hour is over.

-Thank you for joining me.

-We close with Ysgol Dewi Sant

-performing a very special song...

-..to mark

-the school's 70th birthday.

-A very good morning to you all.
