-..to wait at tables, -discover treasures... | 0:00:41 | 0:00:44 | |
-..prepare food -and care for animals. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:48 | |

-..and understand different accents -for two days at busy workplaces. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:57 | |

-I'm Neil Rowlands. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:10 | |
-I'm from Cardiff -but I now live in Swansea. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
-I work at Swansea University... | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
-..doing clerical, administrative -and computer work. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:21 | |
-I've been learning Welsh -for four years now. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
-It's been a great journey, really. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:29 | |
-I decided to learn the language... | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
-..so that I could feel -like a proper Welshman. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:36 | |
-The Swansea area -is an arid area for the language. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:42 | |
-Welsh speakers in Swansea and the -Gower are some 4% of the population. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:48 | |
-I don't get many opportunities -to use the language. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:52 | |
-I'm glad to come to Llandeilo -and to be in an area... | 0:01:53 | 0:01:58 | |
-..where I can use my Welsh first, -before English. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:03 | |
-I think I'll be doing -lots of different things. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:09 | |
-Arranging flowers, -making deliveries... | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
-..talking to customers -and answering the phone. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:16 | |
-I'm looking forward -to the process... | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
-..and to enjoying -my two days, really. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
-But where will Neil be working? | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
-My name's Nia and I own Pinc, -the flower shop in Llandeilo. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:32 | |
-I offer a floral service -for everyone locally... | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
-..and further afield. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
-We specialize in wedding flowers, -we serve the funeral industry... | 0:02:37 | 0:02:42 | |
-..and we also arrange flowers -for local hotels and pubs... | 0:02:42 | 0:02:47 | |
-..coffee shops and some hair salons. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:51 | |
-The shop opened in 2005. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:57 | |
-By now, we're in the unit -next to Heavenly... | 0:02:57 | 0:03:00 | |
-..which sells chocolate -and ice cream. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
-Both shops complement each other. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
-Welsh is very important -in this area. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
-There are two Welsh-medium schools -in the area. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
-I'd like everyone who works in -the shop to be able to speak Welsh. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:18 | |
-It's very important. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:20 | |
-A lot of people -have moved into the area. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
-Fair play, -we have a lot of learners. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
-When they come in, -we always greet them in Welsh... | 0:03:26 | 0:03:30 | |
-..to show that we speak Welsh -and that we're here to help them. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:35 | |
-Hello, Nia. I'm Neil -and I'm here to do work experience. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:41 | |
-Welcome to Pinc, Neil. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:42 | |
-Welcome to Pinc, Neil. - -Thank you very much. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
-Have you worked with flowers before? | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
-Have you worked with flowers before? - -No, never. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:49 | |
-Have you bought flowers before? | 0:03:49 | 0:03:51 | |
-Have you bought flowers before? - -I have, yes. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:52 | |
-But I haven't arranged flowers. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:54 | |
-We'll have two happy days together. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
-We'll have two happy days together. - -Definitely. Thank you. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
-Today, we're preparing a vase -for the Cawdor Hotel. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:06 | |
-They expect a fresh vase of flowers -from us every week. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
-Lovely. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:12 | |
-The theme varies every week. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
-But I know that the manageress -has her favourite colours. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:21 | |
-The best way to start -is to measure the top of the vase. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:26 | |
-Bring it back to the edge -and measure. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:30 | |
-Cut where you think it's important. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:33 | |
-Don't cut the stems too short, OK? | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
-We can always cut them again -if they're too long! | 0:04:37 | 0:04:41 | |
-I'll cut this here. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:43 | |
-Cut straight? | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
-No, at an angle. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:47 | |
-That lets the stem -draw up more water... | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
-..because the surface area -is bigger. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
-Watch your fingers. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:56 | |
-OK, and take the leaves -off here, and maybe... | 0:04:56 | 0:05:01 | |
-Yes, remove most of the leaves. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:04 | |
-Great. And put them in. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:07 | |
-Oops, sorry. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:09 | |
-Oops, sorry. - -That's fine. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:10 | |
-And put them against the back. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
-I enjoyed it very much. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:16 | |
-I didn't really know the principles -behind flower arranging. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:20 | |
-It was nice to learn them. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
-In future, I'm sure I'll be able -to arrange flowers myself. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:27 | |
-If I buy flowers for my mother -or for Christmas... | 0:05:27 | 0:05:31 | |
-..I can arrange them myself. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:33 | |
-..I can arrange them myself. - -Right, very good. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:35 | |
-So far, so good. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:36 | |
-Right, thank you. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:38 | |
-Have you noticed -that we have three hydrangeas? | 0:05:38 | 0:05:42 | |
-Three hydrangeas. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:43 | |
-And three blooms. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:45 | |
-And three blooms. - -Three blooms, OK. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:46 | |
-Not four, and not two. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:48 | |
-Oh, right. So, odd numbers? | 0:05:48 | 0:05:50 | |
-Yes, it's important. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:51 | |
-Yes, it's important. - -Why? | 0:05:51 | 0:05:53 | |
-It's a biblical thing, originally. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:55 | |
-The Father, the Son -and the Holy Ghost... | 0:05:56 | 0:05:59 | |
-..or the five saints. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:01 | |
-But numbers -like three, five and seven... | 0:06:01 | 0:06:05 | |
-..give you a better arrangement -at the end. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:09 | |
-I could never have imagined that. | 0:06:09 | 0:06:13 | |
-He's a very pleasant person. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:15 | |
-He's talkative -and asks plenty of questions. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:18 | |
-He's obviously keen to learn. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:22 | |
-That's a very good thing -for work experience. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:26 | |
-It's difficult sometimes -to transfer a skill to someone else. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:30 | |
-But Neil has that interest -and he wants to do his best. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:34 | |
-I'm very happy, -at the moment, anyway! | 0:06:34 | 0:06:37 | |
-Well done, Neil. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:39 | |
-Measure and cut. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:40 | |
-Measure and cut. - -You can come to work here! | 0:06:40 | 0:06:42 | |
-How did you start -to be able to do this job so well? | 0:06:44 | 0:06:48 | |
-I started when I was about 13, -as a YFC member. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:52 | |
-Right, OK. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:54 | |
-Every year, -they hold a competition. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:59 | |
-The Carmarthenshire rally. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:01 | |
-Every year, -I was chosen to do the flowers. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:04 | |
-That's how I started. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:06 | |
-But my mother -was also interested in it. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
-I opened a flower shop. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:11 | |
-It's sad, thinking about it. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
-I lost my parents, -and it made me think. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
-Their deaths made me think -how short life is. | 0:07:17 | 0:07:23 | |
-I decided to go for it and opened -a flower shop twelve years ago. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:28 | |
-Well done. Ten out of ten. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:30 | |
-Special. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:31 | |
-Next, Neil spends time -at the reception desk. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:35 | |
-It's another important part -of running a flower shop. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:39 | |
-I'm Catrin. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:40 | |
-Hello, Catrin. I'm Neil. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:42 | |
-I'm Nia's daughter. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:45 | |
-I'm responsible for the reception. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
-Welcoming customers, -answering the phone... | 0:07:48 | 0:07:51 | |
-..pricing the flowers and so on. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:54 | |
-I'll show you -how we price the flowers first. | 0:07:56 | 0:07:59 | |
-We get a slip -from the flower wholesaler. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:04 | |
-We put those prices on cards -and attach them to all the flowers. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:08 | |
-You might get to know -some of the flowers this way. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:11 | |
-Do you know most of the customers? | 0:08:12 | 0:08:14 | |
-Are they regulars? | 0:08:14 | 0:08:16 | |
-Local people, although we do get -phone calls from further afield. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:21 | |
-They've seen our website -or seen us on Facebook or Instagram. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:25 | |
-Some we don't know, but we know most -of those who come into the shop... | 0:08:25 | 0:08:30 | |
-..because the business has been -going in Llandeilo for a while now. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
-Cassa lily. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:38 | |
-Sorry, c-a-s... | 0:08:39 | 0:08:40 | |
-Sorry, c-a-s... - -S-a. Double s. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:42 | |
-Double s. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
-They're 5. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
-Sorry, 1? | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
-Sorry, 1? - -No, 5. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:49 | |
-Mam wouldn't be happy -if we sold them for a pound! | 0:08:49 | 0:08:53 | |
-Yes, it's important to know -the difference between 1 and 5... | 0:08:53 | 0:08:57 | |
-..as Neil runs the shop for a while. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:00 | |
-Hello, how are you? | 0:09:01 | 0:09:02 | |
-Hello, how are you? - -Good morning, I'm Neil. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:03 | |
-I'm working here for two days. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:06 | |
-Are you enjoying it? | 0:09:06 | 0:09:08 | |
-Are you enjoying it? - -Yes, it's been a great experience. | 0:09:08 | 0:09:10 | |
-I'd like to order flowers. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:13 | |
-I have a shop in the town. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
-I'd like flowers -to put in the window. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:19 | |
-In the window, OK. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:20 | |
-What kind of flowers -do you usually buy? | 0:09:21 | 0:09:25 | |
-Do you order a set bouquet? | 0:09:25 | 0:09:29 | |
-Or do Nia and Catrin -choose on your behalf? | 0:09:29 | 0:09:32 | |
-I usually tell them the colours. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:35 | |
-The seasonal colours in the shop -are yellow and mustard. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:42 | |
-I'd like those colours -in the bouquet. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:47 | |
-OK, with a little white and green -to bring the yellow out, perhaps. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:53 | |
-Yes, yes. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:54 | |
-Yes, yes. - -OK. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:55 | |
-I think Neil's very keen to learn. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
-He asks a lot of questions. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:00 | |
-That's a good sign -that he wants to learn. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:03 | |
-He's pleasant -and he took the orders. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:06 | |
-He asked about colours, -the type of flowers, the occasion... | 0:10:06 | 0:10:10 | |
-..if they were to be collected -or delivered. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:12 | |
-He got everything right. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:14 | |
-By when do you want the flowers? | 0:10:15 | 0:10:17 | |
-Tomorrow, if possible. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:18 | |
-Tomorrow, if possible. - -I'm sure it will be. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
-We try to change the window display -once a week. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:23 | |
-Once I get the flowers, I can put -clothes in the window to match them. | 0:10:23 | 0:10:29 | |
-Do you want us -to bring the flowers to you? | 0:10:29 | 0:10:33 | |
-Or will you collect them yourself? | 0:10:34 | 0:10:36 | |
-Or will you collect them yourself? - -It'd be great if you could deliver. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |

-Thank you. Ta-ra. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:47 | |
-Delivering flowers is a popular -and important service as well. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:52 | |
-That's Neil's next job. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
-So, we're delivering this vase -to the Cawdor Hotel down the road. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:59 | |
-You're going, not us. -This is your job. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:03 | |
-Right, OK. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:04 | |

-Welcome back to Profiad Gwaith... | 0:14:47 | 0:14:49 | |
-..where learners get the chance... | 0:14:50 | 0:14:52 | |
-..to work for two days -and speak only Welsh. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:58 | |
-This time, Neil Rowlands -is at Pinc florists in Llandeilo. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:02 | |
-He's already learnt -how to arrange flowers... | 0:15:03 | 0:15:07 | |
-..and how to deliver them. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:10 | |
-..and how to deliver them. - -Good morning. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:12 | |
-Did you have a nice night? | 0:15:12 | 0:15:15 | |
-Did you have a nice night? - -Yes, lovely, thank you. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:16 | |
-I hope you're ready for a busy day. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
-We have funeral flowers to deliver. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
-Then you'll deliver flowers to Caryl -Rig Out, whose order you took. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:27 | |
-Our flower orders for today -will be arriving soon. | 0:15:28 | 0:15:33 | |
-They'll need to be put in water -and sorted as quickly as we can. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:37 | |
-I hope you're ready for a busy day. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |
-What have we got here? | 0:15:42 | 0:15:44 | |
-Seasonal colours. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:47 | |
-Orange germini. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:50 | |
-Very pretty. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:51 | |
-Underneath -is quite an unusual flower. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:56 | |
-Celosia. | 0:15:57 | 0:15:58 | |
-OK? | 0:15:58 | 0:15:59 | |
-No scent. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:00 | |
-These are popular with hotels -and shops in general... | 0:16:01 | 0:16:06 | |
-..because they're different. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:09 | |
-We had a new delivery of flowers. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:13 | |
-Over 150 stems in all. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:16 | |
-Neil put them all in water -and conditioned them. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:20 | |
-He's been a big help this morning. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:23 | |
-How often do you get new deliveries? | 0:16:24 | 0:16:28 | |
-Every day? | 0:16:28 | 0:16:29 | |
-Yes. | 0:16:29 | 0:16:30 | |
-From Monday to Friday. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:32 | |
-From Monday to Friday. - -Right, OK. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:33 | |
-Some come directly from Holland. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:36 | |
-Directly from Holland? | 0:16:36 | 0:16:38 | |
-We order online. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:41 | |
-So, you choose all the flowers. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
-We try to create -a story out of flowers. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
-As you can see, today, we've chosen -orange and green flowers. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:51 | |
-It's now late October. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
-Is it difficult... | 0:16:54 | 0:16:56 | |
-..to choose the flowers -that you hope to sell? | 0:16:57 | 0:17:01 | |
-You try to order flowers... | 0:17:02 | 0:17:04 | |
-..so that those who've placed orders -with you get what they want. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:08 | |
-You also want to buy flowers -that are seasonal. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
-And you also want to buy flowers -that are different. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:16 | |
-You have to choose -from three different classes. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:19 | |
-It takes years of experience... | 0:17:20 | 0:17:24 | |
-..to get it right. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:26 | |
-Right, Neil. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
-Now I want you to prepare -the flowers for Rig Out. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:35 | |
-Caryl came in yesterday. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:38 | |
-She's changing her window, -and you took the order. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:42 | |
-She wants green and yellow... | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
-..and we'll add a touch -of orange too, as it's seasonal. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:49 | |
-We'll also use poppy seed heads, -which signify the onset of autumn. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:53 | |
-What colour will these become? | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
-What colour will these become? - -They stay like that. | 0:17:56 | 0:17:58 | |
-They don't open. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:00 | |
-They have bloomed -and have closed. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:02 | |
-Oh, right. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:04 | |
-I'm the kind of person -who learns by doing things. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:07 | |
-Nia told me how to arrange -the flowers yesterday. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:12 | |
-By doing it, I can see how it works. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:15 | |
-Well done. You're getting into it. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:20 | |
-Throwing leaves on the floor -is the mark of a professional. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:24 | |
-The only thing -with something like that... | 0:18:26 | 0:18:29 | |
-..is making sure -there are no leaves in the water. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:33 | |
-He was turning the vase -and looking at his work. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:36 | |
-He also knew the flowers' names, -so he's making excellent progress. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:42 | |
-We have one more. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:44 | |
-I'd look at that again -and ask if it's good enough. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:48 | |
-It's... | 0:18:49 | 0:18:50 | |
-No? | 0:18:50 | 0:18:51 | |
-This is another thing to learn. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:54 | |
-Remove the petals and leaves. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:56 | |
-Oh! | 0:18:57 | 0:18:58 | |
-Then put it in like that. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:01 | |
-It creates interest. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:06 | |
-That is interesting. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:08 | |
-It's been great to do it in Welsh, -talking to Nia all morning. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:14 | |
-I've also picked up -some Carmarthenshire dialect. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:19 | |
-"Odi, odi." | 0:19:19 | 0:19:20 | |
-Instead of saying "Ydw" or "Ydy" -or "Ydyn", they say, "Odi, odi." | 0:19:21 | 0:19:26 | |
-I can take that into class... | 0:19:27 | 0:19:30 | |
-..and forget about -the different types of yes. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:34 | |
-"Odi, odi" suits everything! | 0:19:35 | 0:19:37 | |
-I'm sure Caryl will be delighted. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
-I'm sure as well. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:41 | |
-Thank you, Nia. It's been nice. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:43 | |
-Thank you, Nia. It's been nice. - -Thank you, Neil. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:44 | |
-Good morning, Caryl. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:51 | |
-How are you today? | 0:19:52 | 0:19:53 | |
-How are you today? - -Fine, thanks. | 0:19:53 | 0:19:54 | |
-These are your flowers. | 0:19:54 | 0:19:56 | |
-Are they OK? | 0:19:56 | 0:19:57 | |
-Are they OK? - -Just what I wanted. | 0:19:57 | 0:19:58 | |
-Rust and yellow. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:01 | |
-It'll be in the window later. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
-So, you're going -to change the clothes... | 0:20:04 | 0:20:08 | |
-..to reflect the flowers. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
-Yes, that's right. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:12 | |
-They're the fashionable colours -for the winter. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:17 | |
-They're great, and they'll be -in the window this afternoon. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:22 | |
-I hope they help you -to sell more clothes. | 0:20:22 | 0:20:25 | |
-I hope so. Thank you. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
-I hope so. Thank you. - -Another happy customer. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:29 | |
-Of course, flowers are suitable -for all kinds of occasions... | 0:20:29 | 0:20:33 | |
-..some happy, some sad. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:35 | |
-Did she pay you? | 0:20:36 | 0:20:37 | |
-Did she pay you? - -Sorry? | 0:20:37 | 0:20:38 | |
-"Dalodd hi?" | 0:20:38 | 0:20:39 | |
-"Dalodd hi?" - -Did she pay you? | 0:20:39 | 0:20:40 | |
-Oh, not yet. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:42 | |
-I'll go back. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:44 | |
-Go back to see her. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:45 | |
-We can't give people free flowers. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
-We can't give people free flowers. - -No, business doesn't work like that. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:50 | |
-But thanks for taking them over. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:52 | |
-But thanks for taking them over. - -No problem. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:53 | |
-As you know, -we have a funeral today. | 0:20:53 | 0:20:56 | |
-We have to finish this wreath -for the coffin. | 0:20:57 | 0:21:00 | |
-On every bouquet that goes out, -the oasis must be concealed. | 0:21:00 | 0:21:06 | |
-Can you finish this off for me? | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
-If you can see the oasis at all... | 0:21:10 | 0:21:12 | |
-..cut some lisianthus -and fill in the gaps for me. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:16 | |
-Yes, OK. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:18 | |
-One flower... | 0:21:18 | 0:21:20 | |
-Cut them quite short, yes. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:23 | |
-The shorter the flower, -the more of the oasis you cover. | 0:21:25 | 0:21:30 | |
-There are some gaps in the back. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:35 | |
-Well done. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:40 | |
-So, funerals must be -a part of your core business. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:46 | |
-Unfortunately, yes, they are. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:49 | |
-That's one certainty, -we all have to die. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:53 | |
-A display like this -really helps people. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:57 | |
-It creates beauty -in a difficult situation. | 0:21:57 | 0:22:01 | |
-It's the final gift -that people give. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:06 | |
-It's crucial that everyone -has what they need on the coffin. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:10 | |
-Definitely, yes. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:12 | |
-Right, Catrin's waiting for you. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:14 | |
-It's time to deliver the flowers. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
-Go to Bethel chapel of rest at the -bottom of Llandeilo to meet Keith. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:23 | |
-Right, OK, I'll take them there. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:25 | |
-Right, OK, I'll take them there. - -Great. Thank you. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:26 | |

-Hearing lots of Welsh. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:00 | |
-I've learnt a lot. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:02 | |
-These are the flowers. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
-Nia told me that the man who died -came from Poland. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:11 | |
-We've used colours that are -sympathetic to that, really, | 0:23:11 | 0:23:16 | |
-Neil helped with the flowers today. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
-Neil helped with the flowers today. - -Oh, very good. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:19 | |

-Would you like to place the flowers -on the coffin? | 0:23:22 | 0:23:25 | |
-Thank you. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:26 | |
-Make sure that side faces down. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:37 | |
-The longest side faces down. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:38 | |
-The longest side faces down. - -Turn it around. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:39 | |
-Turn it around. OK? | 0:23:39 | 0:23:42 | |
-In the middle and it's fine. | 0:23:43 | 0:23:45 | |
-In the middle. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:47 | |
-I can see that. | 0:23:47 | 0:23:48 | |
-There we are. | 0:23:50 | 0:23:51 | |
-Thank you. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:53 | |

-Welcome to cariad@iaith -Tu Ol I'r Llen. | 0:28:39 | 0:28:43 | |
-I'm Ashok Ahir and I was a finalist -in Welsh Learner Of The Year 2012. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:48 | |
-Originally from Wolverhampton... | 0:28:51 | 0:28:54 | |
-..Ashok lives in this house -with Manon, his wife... | 0:28:54 | 0:28:57 | |
-..and their children, -Maya, Noa and Osian. | 0:28:58 | 0:29:01 | |
-Ashok, thank you for the welcome -to your wonderful home. | 0:29:04 | 0:29:08 | |
-We last met on the cariad@iaith set. -Did you enjoy it? | 0:29:09 | 0:29:12 | |
-Yes, it was -quite a special experience. | 0:29:13 | 0:29:15 | |
-Not just because I got to work -with people like you... | 0:29:16 | 0:29:19 | |
-..but also because -I got to go behind the camera. | 0:29:19 | 0:29:23 | |
-I'm used to working behind -the camera but not in front of it. | 0:29:23 | 0:29:27 | |
-It was interesting to be behind -and in front of the camera. | 0:29:27 | 0:29:32 | |
-It was also great to be part -of a series for fellow learners. | 0:29:32 | 0:29:36 | |
-Why did you learn Welsh -and when did you do that? | 0:29:38 | 0:29:43 | |
-My wife comes from Aberystwyth -originally and she speaks Welsh. | 0:29:43 | 0:29:49 | |
-It wasn't really an option -for me not to learn Welsh. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:55 | |
-Our eldest child -is almost 13 years old... | 0:29:55 | 0:30:00 | |
-..so I decided about ten years ago -that I had to try to learn Welsh. | 0:30:01 | 0:30:07 | |
-The time came when we decided -to stop speaking English at home... | 0:30:07 | 0:30:11 | |
-..and make Welsh -the language of our home. | 0:30:12 | 0:30:15 | |
-How did you do that? | 0:30:16 | 0:30:17 | |
-Do you have any tips for learners? | 0:30:17 | 0:30:20 | |
-You are the person -who has to give that push. | 0:30:20 | 0:30:22 | |
-Everyone else in my wife's family -speaks Welsh. | 0:30:23 | 0:30:25 | |
-I asked them not to turn to English -when we had Sunday lunch together... | 0:30:26 | 0:30:30 | |
-..but to carry on speaking Welsh. | 0:30:30 | 0:30:34 | |
-Everyone accepted that. -It wasn't a problem. | 0:30:34 | 0:30:37 | |
-If you don't give people a chance -to do that, it won't happen. | 0:30:38 | 0:30:42 | |
-You, as a learner, must give them -permission to carry on in Welsh. | 0:30:42 | 0:30:46 | |
-Was Learner Of The Year -a good experience? | 0:30:47 | 0:30:50 | |
-Yes, and it was a chance to show -I'd reached a certain level. | 0:30:50 | 0:30:54 | |
-That I was confident enough -to speak Welsh in public. | 0:30:54 | 0:30:57 | |
-It's like a public declaration. | 0:30:58 | 0:31:01 | |
-I'm learning Welsh. | 0:31:02 | 0:31:03 | |
-Speak Welsh to me. | 0:31:03 | 0:31:05 | |
-People came up to me and said they -had no idea I was learning Welsh. | 0:31:06 | 0:31:10 | |
-People I've known for 15 years. | 0:31:11 | 0:31:14 | |
-That was the biggest step of all. | 0:31:15 | 0:31:17 | |
-Tell me about your work. | 0:31:17 | 0:31:19 | |
-You were at the BBC for years. | 0:31:19 | 0:31:21 | |

-..with their clients, -with their staff... | 0:31:54 | 0:31:57 | |
-..and with the government. | 0:31:57 | 0:32:00 | |
-Does the ability to speak different -languages help you in your work? | 0:32:00 | 0:32:05 | |

-We help businesses -and organizations... | 0:32:09 | 0:32:13 | |
-..to improve their Welsh. | 0:32:13 | 0:32:16 | |

-Welcome back. | 0:35:47 | 0:35:49 | |
-I'm at home with Ashok Ahir -and his family. | 0:35:49 | 0:35:52 | |
-How do you usually -spend your Sundays? | 0:35:52 | 0:35:55 | |
-Like most people, we love to cook. | 0:35:55 | 0:35:58 | |
-Are you a good cook? | 0:35:58 | 0:36:01 | |
-I'm not sure about that -but I enjoy it. | 0:36:01 | 0:36:04 | |
-I enjoy the experience -of playing with food. | 0:36:04 | 0:36:08 | |
-There are lots of fresh ingredients -there, so shall I be your sous-chef? | 0:36:08 | 0:36:14 | |
-If you'll be my sous-chef, -I'll cook for you. | 0:36:14 | 0:36:18 | |
-Great. What shall we cook? | 0:36:18 | 0:36:20 | |
-A simple vegetable dish... | 0:36:20 | 0:36:24 | |
-..and aloo gobi, -cauliflower and potatoes. | 0:36:24 | 0:36:28 | |
-Indian food is my favourite cuisine. | 0:36:28 | 0:36:31 | |
-We started -by preparing the vegetables. | 0:36:33 | 0:36:37 | |
-Are Indian food -and Punjabi food the same? | 0:36:38 | 0:36:43 | |
-If you dine -in restaurants in Britain... | 0:36:44 | 0:36:49 | |
-..the majority of the dishes you eat -are Punjabi. | 0:36:50 | 0:36:55 | |
-In Indian restaurants? | 0:36:56 | 0:36:57 | |
-In Indian restaurants? - -Yes. | 0:36:57 | 0:36:58 | |
-Take a masala, for example. | 0:36:59 | 0:37:02 | |
-The only people in India -who make masala sauces... | 0:37:03 | 0:37:07 | |
-..are people in the north. | 0:37:08 | 0:37:10 | |
-Punjabis, in other words. | 0:37:10 | 0:37:12 | |
-When I cook a curry, I always start -with onions, garlic and ginger. | 0:37:12 | 0:37:17 | |
-That's the base for any curry. | 0:37:20 | 0:37:23 | |
-I remember being in the kitchen -when I was a child... | 0:37:23 | 0:37:27 | |
-..with my mother -and my grandmother... | 0:37:27 | 0:37:30 | |
-..helping out with chopping onions -or crushing chillies and ginger. | 0:37:32 | 0:37:38 | |
-I learnt by watching them. | 0:37:40 | 0:37:42 | |
-The smell I remember from back then -is onions, garlic and ginger... | 0:37:42 | 0:37:47 | |
-..cooking with a bit of chilli. | 0:37:48 | 0:37:50 | |
-With the first step complete, Ashok -added vegetables and cooked them. | 0:37:52 | 0:37:57 | |
-Meanwhile, some hungry mouths -were waiting to be fed. | 0:37:58 | 0:38:01 | |
-Papa, I'm hungry! | 0:38:02 | 0:38:05 | |
-Wow! | 0:38:06 | 0:38:07 | |
-That looks wonderful. | 0:38:08 | 0:38:10 | |
-Papa speaks Punjabi with you. | 0:38:13 | 0:38:18 | |
-Mam speaks Welsh with you. | 0:38:18 | 0:38:23 | |
-What do you speak with each other? | 0:38:23 | 0:38:25 | |
-We speak Welsh -and some Punjabi words... | 0:38:26 | 0:38:28 | |
-..which we were brought up with -since we were little. | 0:38:29 | 0:38:32 | |
-We reply to Papa's Punjabi in Welsh. | 0:38:33 | 0:38:36 | |
-He answers us in Welsh or Punjabi. | 0:38:36 | 0:38:39 | |
-Teach me something simple -in Punjabi. | 0:38:40 | 0:38:44 | |
-If you want to say 'my name is'... | 0:38:45 | 0:38:48 | |
-..you say 'merra nam hai'... | 0:38:49 | 0:38:54 | |
-..then your name. | 0:38:54 | 0:38:55 | |
-Merra nam hai Nia. | 0:38:56 | 0:38:58 | |
-How do you do? | 0:38:58 | 0:38:59 | |
-Merra nam hai Nia. | 0:39:00 | 0:39:02 | |
-Manon, while Ashok -makes more chapatis... | 0:39:13 | 0:39:17 | |
-..tell me the story of how you met. | 0:39:17 | 0:39:20 | |
-Love at first sight? | 0:39:20 | 0:39:21 | |
-Love at first sight? - -No. Definitely not! | 0:39:21 | 0:39:23 | |
-We worked together -in the BBC newsroom for years. | 0:39:25 | 0:39:28 | |
-We were both journalists. | 0:39:28 | 0:39:30 | |
-We were friends for a long time. | 0:39:30 | 0:39:33 | |
-I went to work in London for -a few years and Ashok worked here. | 0:39:33 | 0:39:38 | |
-We didn't work in the same city -until after we got married. | 0:39:38 | 0:39:43 | |
-He caught the train to London -every Sunday night... | 0:39:43 | 0:39:46 | |
-..for the first year -of our marriage. | 0:39:47 | 0:39:49 | |
-What about your wedding? | 0:39:49 | 0:39:52 | |
-What about your wedding? - -We had two wedding ceremonies. | 0:39:52 | 0:39:54 | |
-The first -was a traditional Welsh ceremony... | 0:39:54 | 0:39:57 | |
-..but with a strong Indian flavour. | 0:39:58 | 0:40:00 | |
-It was held in my chapel -in Aberystwyth. | 0:40:00 | 0:40:03 | |
-There were chillies on the windows -in the flower arrangements. | 0:40:03 | 0:40:08 | |
-We included quite a few readings -in the service. | 0:40:08 | 0:40:12 | |
-At some point -during the wedding breakfast... | 0:40:12 | 0:40:15 | |
-..all the aunties on Ashok's side -took over and they started to dance. | 0:40:16 | 0:40:21 | |
-They made their own music -and started to sing. | 0:40:21 | 0:40:25 | |
-We had a jazz band, but they decided -to ignore it for a while! | 0:40:25 | 0:40:29 | |
-We ended up with half an hour -of jazz and half an hour of Bhangra. | 0:40:30 | 0:40:34 | |
-It was a mixture of both -and it was fantastic fun. | 0:40:34 | 0:40:38 | |
-It was a blend of everything but it -was really colourful and wonderful. | 0:40:38 | 0:40:44 | |
-Two wedding days? Perfect! | 0:40:44 | 0:40:47 | |
-Two wedding days? Perfect! - -Two outfits, mind you. | 0:40:47 | 0:40:49 | |
-Obviously! | 0:40:50 | 0:40:51 | |
-Full to bursting with tasty food, -we went for a walk in the park. | 0:40:54 | 0:40:58 | |
-We're walking -through Pontcanna Fields... | 0:40:58 | 0:41:01 | |
-..which are very close to your home. | 0:41:02 | 0:41:04 | |
-Yes - just down the hill. | 0:41:05 | 0:41:06 | |
-Do you come here often? | 0:41:07 | 0:41:09 | |
-Yes, we're here every weekend. | 0:41:09 | 0:41:11 | |
-The boys play rugby - -one over there and one over here. | 0:41:13 | 0:41:18 | |
-They play for different clubs, -so there's competition in the house. | 0:41:18 | 0:41:23 | |
-They're arch-rivals! | 0:41:23 | 0:41:25 | |
-Do you think Cardiff is a nice city? | 0:41:27 | 0:41:31 | |
-Yes, and that's one of the reasons -we're bringing up our children here. | 0:41:32 | 0:41:37 | |
-It's a perfect city for families -and also great for young people. | 0:41:37 | 0:41:41 | |
-I first came to Cardiff -to study at the university. | 0:41:42 | 0:41:45 | |
-It's a brilliant city for students. | 0:41:45 | 0:41:48 | |
-There's plenty to do... | 0:41:48 | 0:41:49 | |
-..and plenty of places to go out -without having to travel far. | 0:41:50 | 0:41:54 | |
-I didn't have a car when I was -a student, so I walked everywhere. | 0:41:54 | 0:41:58 | |
-It's big enough... | 0:41:58 | 0:42:00 | |
-..but it's also small enough -to have a community feel. | 0:42:00 | 0:42:04 | |
-Yes, and since my student days -I've crossed the bridge... | 0:42:04 | 0:42:08 | |
-..from east to west Cardiff. | 0:42:09 | 0:42:11 | |
-When you live and work in Cardiff... | 0:42:14 | 0:42:17 | |
-..you see the city -in a totally different light... | 0:42:17 | 0:42:21 | |
-..from your student days. | 0:42:21 | 0:42:23 | |
-It's nice to have a cuppa -after our walk. | 0:42:28 | 0:42:31 | |
-Ashok, tell me -about your original home. | 0:42:32 | 0:42:35 | |
-Wolverhampton. | 0:42:35 | 0:42:37 | |
-Like many who came to Britain, -we all lived in one house. | 0:42:38 | 0:42:43 | |
-That was how it was. | 0:42:44 | 0:42:45 | |
-Then my parents, -us as a family, moved out. | 0:42:46 | 0:42:50 | |
-We lived around the corner -from my grandparents' house. | 0:42:50 | 0:42:55 | |
-Were you a large family? | 0:42:55 | 0:42:56 | |
-Were you a large family? - -I have two brothers and one sister. | 0:42:56 | 0:42:59 | |
-Do your parents -still live in Wolverhampton? | 0:42:59 | 0:43:03 | |
-Yes, but they spend half their time -in Wolverhampton and half in Punjab. | 0:43:04 | 0:43:09 | |
-Tell me about life out there. | 0:43:09 | 0:43:12 | |
-Do you visit regularly? | 0:43:12 | 0:43:14 | |
-Do you visit regularly? - -Yes, we go every other year. | 0:43:14 | 0:43:16 | |
-That's how it's been -since we've had children. | 0:43:16 | 0:43:20 | |
-It's a bit strange -because I left when I was three... | 0:43:20 | 0:43:25 | |
-..and I didn't go back -until I was something like 27. | 0:43:26 | 0:43:29 | |
-But since then, I went every year... | 0:43:29 | 0:43:32 | |
-..then every other year -with the children. | 0:43:33 | 0:43:37 | |
-That's what we aim for. | 0:43:37 | 0:43:39 | |
-Would you ever go back -to live in India? | 0:43:40 | 0:43:42 | |
-Do you feel drawn there? | 0:43:43 | 0:43:44 | |
-Do you feel it's your home... | 0:43:45 | 0:43:47 | |
-..or is this your home? | 0:43:48 | 0:43:50 | |
-I have different elements of 'home' -in different places... | 0:43:50 | 0:43:54 | |
-..but Cardiff is my home. | 0:43:55 | 0:43:57 | |
-Ashok, tell me what three things -you'd save from a fire. | 0:44:11 | 0:44:16 | |
-The first item is in the corner. | 0:44:17 | 0:44:19 | |
-It's an old record player. | 0:44:20 | 0:44:23 | |
-It's a HMV model from the 1920s. | 0:44:23 | 0:44:26 | |
-I like it because -it plays my old jazz 78s. | 0:44:27 | 0:44:31 | |
-I'm always on the lookout -for more 78s... | 0:44:31 | 0:44:34 | |
-..but it plays the ones -I do have perfectly. | 0:44:34 | 0:44:37 | |
-Has it been in your family -since the 1920s? | 0:44:43 | 0:44:46 | |
-Well, it was a present -from a family member. | 0:44:47 | 0:44:51 | |
-He found it on eBay -and gave it to me! | 0:44:51 | 0:44:53 | |
-What's the second thing? | 0:44:54 | 0:44:56 | |
-It's a bit big and it's upstairs. | 0:44:56 | 0:44:59 | |
-Come upstairs to see it. | 0:44:59 | 0:45:00 | |
-Come upstairs to see it. - -No problem. | 0:45:00 | 0:45:01 | |
-This is my gentleman's compendium. | 0:45:05 | 0:45:07 | |
-This is my gentleman's compendium. - -A wardrobe designed for men? | 0:45:07 | 0:45:10 | |
-The idea of the compendium -dates back to Victorian times... | 0:45:11 | 0:45:15 | |
-..but this is Edwardian, -which is the same era as the house. | 0:45:15 | 0:45:20 | |
-It fits in. | 0:45:20 | 0:45:21 | |
-Can I take a peek inside? | 0:45:21 | 0:45:24 | |
-Yes, if you like. | 0:45:24 | 0:45:26 | |
-Hey! A hanging rail for suits. | 0:45:27 | 0:45:29 | |
-The shoe section. | 0:45:30 | 0:45:31 | |
-The shoe section. - -Yes, plus my sports kit. | 0:45:31 | 0:45:33 | |
-A modern gentleman's compendium -includes a gym kit! | 0:45:33 | 0:45:37 | |
-These are the drawers -and this is the part I really like. | 0:45:37 | 0:45:42 | |
-It's like being -in an old clothes shop. | 0:45:42 | 0:45:46 | |
-The drawers pull out. | 0:45:46 | 0:45:48 | |
-Even the ones made later -than this period have four drawers. | 0:45:49 | 0:45:54 | |
-It's a lovely compendium. | 0:45:54 | 0:45:58 | |
-Good luck carrying that out! | 0:46:01 | 0:46:03 | |
-Good luck carrying that out! - -It was carried in here, in sections. | 0:46:03 | 0:46:06 | |
-I could get it out, -depending where the fire is! | 0:46:07 | 0:46:10 | |
-My third item is down here. | 0:46:10 | 0:46:12 | |
-That's nice. | 0:46:17 | 0:46:18 | |
-Ashok and Manon's wedding, -2 September 2000. | 0:46:18 | 0:46:22 | |
-Was it a present? | 0:46:22 | 0:46:24 | |
-Yes, from the artist Bethan Clwyd, -who is one of Manon's best friends. | 0:46:24 | 0:46:29 | |
-She created it after the wedding. | 0:46:29 | 0:46:32 | |
-She took inspiration -from our wedding day. | 0:46:32 | 0:46:35 | |
-Manon's dress was a combination -of a Punjabi bridal lehnga... | 0:46:35 | 0:46:41 | |
-..and a Welsh wedding dress, -in a gold colour. | 0:46:42 | 0:46:47 | |
-Manon didn't like it, -but we wore blue shirts. | 0:46:47 | 0:46:50 | |
-That's where the blue is from. | 0:46:51 | 0:46:53 | |
-The green comes from Ceredigion. | 0:46:53 | 0:46:56 | |
-We had our wedding reception -at Nanteos mansion... | 0:46:56 | 0:47:00 | |
-..after the wedding service -in the centre of Aberystwyth. | 0:47:00 | 0:47:05 | |
-That's lovely -and it's really personal too. | 0:47:06 | 0:47:09 | |
-I've had a great day -with you and your family. Thank you. | 0:47:10 | 0:47:13 | |
