-Hello and a warm welcome to Heno.

-We hope that the wet weather

-isn't affecting you too much.

-Last night, we mentioned that

-it is the season of resolutions.

-This time last year, my guest made

-a special New Year's resolution...

-..to live self-sufficiently, hunt

-and forage for his supper and so on.

-He joins us tonight

-to chat about this challenge.

-We welcome Carwyn Jones

-from Porthmadog to the studio.

-Thank you.

-Viewers will see Carwyn in action

-on our screens on Thursday night.

-It starts at 9.30pm.

-I'll organize your festive trimmings

-in preparation for next Christmas.

-We meet the musician, Rob Nicholls

-who embarks upon a new challenge...

-..as a minister

-at a London-Welsh church.

-If your child is the next

-Geraint Thomas or Becky James...

-..you can learn more about

-the Toddlebike cycling scheme.

-We also meet Wales' tallest giraffe

-at its new home of Folly Farm.

-But we start tonight

-with my guest, Carwyn Jones.

-You live in Porthmadog

-but live in Caernarfon.

-You must have trouble with your

-name.

-It can pose as a problem at times.

-Tell us about your challenge from

-last year.

-I didn't like the way that animals

-and farmers were treated.

-Here's a clip from Y Dyn Gwyllt.

-I lead quite an ordinary life.

-I worked for the local council

-in a 9-to-5 job.

-But at night, when everyone else

-sits in front of the television...

-..I step outside into the wild.

-This is the only world

-that won't lie to you.

-GUNSHOT

-Y Dyn Gwyllt airs on Thursday

-at 9.30pm on S4C.

-What was you life like before you

-did this challenge?

-I've always enjoyed fishing and

-playing sports.

-I also was part of bands.

-I turned back to wildlife later in

-my life.

-What happened when you ran out of

-food?

-I stockpiled with my food.

-I would also visit the sea shore and

-collect cockles.

-I was really missing eating bacon.

-I have trouble eating salty or fatty

-meat today.

-You also went without your Christmas

-dinner.

-I decided to make a five-bird roast.

-It involved a lot of work.

-It was like the work of

-Frankenstein!

-You were also part of the band,

-Genod Droog.

-Life has changed since those days.

-You are not in the picture on the

-screen.

-Is music part of your life now?

-I'm able to relax more after my

-challenge.

-We'll chat again later.

-Cycling is certainly

-a popular sport these days.

-It's thanks to champions such as

-Geraint Thomas and Becky James...

-..that we see people

-on the bikes everywhere.

-In Carmarthenshire, they're enticing

-budding cyclists from a young age...

-..via a sponsorship from

-the Wales Sports Council...

-..that encourages children

-as young as two to get on a bike.

-Heledd has the story.

-Toddlebike is a cycling scheme for

-Carmarthenshire's primary schools.

-It aims to incite the young to get

-on their bike at a very young age.

-But what exactly is this scheme?

-We've purchased a lot of equipment

-and balance bikes for them to use.

-In addition to this,

-we've trained around 40 teachers.

-Schools have borrowed our equipment

-along with balance and small bikes.

-They'll then hold regular sessions.

-It's been a sweeping success and the

-schools and parents are supportive.

-It's a chance for everyone with or

-without a bike to learn the skill.

-These bikes assist

-with balance and agility.

-The children must follow guidelines

-so they must listen and communicate.

-It's also a fun way of learning

-something that's healthy for us.

-It's promotes health and fitness.

-It's also a chance for the children

-to use resources...

-..that aren't affordable for schools

-and learn from the experts...

-..who know how to use these

-resources and pedal-less bikes.

-I come from the Cylch Meithrin

-at Penygroes.

-It's a great idea as I can bring

-my three children together.

-My daughters were late walkers

-so I try everything to help them.

-In regards to figures

-and health purposes...

-..the Welsh tend to be less active.

-Riding a bike

-is one of life's skills.

-I'd like to see more children

-get on their bikes.

-The ability to ride a bike by the

-age of six or seven is an advantage.

-What a great idea.

-Do you like to keep fit, Carwyn?

-I do walk a lot but I would like to

-take up cycling.

-After the break, Daf Wyn chats

-to the musician, Rob Nicholls...

-..who is the new minister at

-a Welsh church in Central London.

-Carys Tudor has advice for pulling

-down and storing your decorations.

-We also meet Wales' tallest giraffe

-at Folly Farm in Pembrokeshire.

-.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-The Christmas and New Year season

-has reached its climax...

-..and now it's the Twelfth Night

-or the season of Epiphany.

-It's time for us to pull down

-our Christmas decorations.

-Our studio feels empty without them

-but I've still got them up at home.

-Our expert, Carys Tudor advises us

-on what we should do with them.

-She also tells us

-how to store them.

-I've got rid of

-all the cardboard boxes...

-..and swapped them for clear boxes.

-They are currently on sale

-and quite deep.

-They can hold quite a lot.

-I've started with the large baubles.

-You can use an apple tray to store

-these.

-You can get these from the

-supermarket.

-You can also place

-other trimmings in here.

-These beads can scratch

-and become a problem.

-We also have a CD tower here.

-You can store your trimming safe

-with this CD box.

-Wrap anything that can attach

-to anything else under wraps.

-Place everything else in different

-boxes.

-Wraps special beads and beading in

-bubble wrap.

-Place socks over candles.

-Fairy lights can be a nuisance.

-You can purchase a device like this

-or make a cardboard one.

-You can recycle your cards

-or cut them out to make labels.

-We cut up cards for messages and so

-on.

-Thank you for the advice.

-Next, we head to

-a location in London...

-..that's well-known among

-the city's Welsh inhabitants.

-It isn't the London Welsh Centre

-on Gray's Inn Road...

-..but the Welsh Church

-of Central London...

-..which is a stone's throw away from

-the city's bustling shopping areas.

-The church recently welcomed

-a new minister...

-..and Daf Wyn went to wish him

-a Happy New Year.

-Oxford Street is

-London's busiest road...

-..with all of the traffic,

-stores and people.

-Around the corner from this iconic

-location on Eastcastle Street...

-..is home to the

-Welsh Church in Central London.

-It's the New Year and

-the chapel has a new minister.

-The new member is no other than the

-musician and organist, Rob Nicholls.

-It's a famous building

-so it will be a real honour.

-I feel a little scared

-of taking on this role.

-This used to be a Baptist chapel.

-It was built in 1889.

-Since 2006,

-three churches have united...

-..to form the

-Welsh Church of Central London.

-Many familiar London Welsh

-inhabitants have been members here.

-This building is famous for having

-David Lloyd George as a member.

-When David Lloyd George

-was a member...

-..his daughter, Lady Olwen married

-here after leaving Downing Street.

-This year, we'll mark 100 years

-since he was elected Prime Minister.

-For several years, there's been

-a resurgence in London-Welsh life.

-Several choirs have formed...

-..and the club in Gray's Inn Road

-is an integral part of social life.

-There's a strong 'Social Gospel'

-here in London.

-It's a fantastic way of keeping

-in touch with the arts and culture.

-There's also room

-for spirituality and religion.

-The vestry, which is now a meeting

-place for many choirs...

-..is also full of history.

-Large dinners and Sunday school

-would have been held here...

-..when thousands moved from

-Wales to work in London.

-There was a strong milk industry

-in London.

-People from Tregaron, Aberaeron

-and Lampeter in Mid-Wales...

-..flocked to London

-due to the milk industry.

-Was there enough room

-for people to sit upstairs?

-During the 1920s and 1930s...

-..at the height of the

-London-Welsh society's popularity...

-..it's rumoured that there was an

-overflow of people in this room.

-The chapel and vestry

-would both be full.

-There was also a simple system to

-transfer the sound to the vestry.

-Thousands of London Welsh

-won't be seen here these days...

-..but the latest revival...

-..a new chapter for Rob, the Welsh

-Language and chapel is underway.

-London life

-is much busier than Cardiff.

-I've arrived at the

-Welsh Church of Central London...

-..and a lot of work

-needs to be done here.

-We want to re-establish the later

-service on a weekly basis.

-We also hope to arrange a variety

-of events for the week.

-There's plenty of work ahead of me.

-Next time I visit Oxford Street,

-I'll pop in for a coffee.

-A warm welcome will

-be waiting for you...

-..and to any others from Wales

-who will be visiting London.

-Thank you.

-Good luck to Rob in his new role.

-Our final story is about an animal

-that hopes to break a world record.

-The owners of Zulu the giraffe claim

-he's the tallest giraffe in Britain.

-We paid him a visit at his home

-in Folly Farm in Pembrokeshire.

-Zulu has joined us at Folly Farm

-and received a lot of attention.

-Zulu's front door is 20-feet-tall

-and he measures around 19 feet.

-Zulu has settled in superbly

-and he's 13 years old.

-He eats 20 kilograms of hay

-and three kilograms of solids daily.

-The zoo keepers and the team here

-refer and compare him to the BFG.

-He's big, really friendly

-and has a wonderful character.

-Zulu certainly enjoyed the fuss

-that he's received from everyone.

-We will measure Zulu to find out if

-he's the tallest giraffe in Britain.

-I look forward to meeting Zulu.

-Have you eaten a giraffe?

-No, I've never tried one!

-You can watch Carwyn's adventures

-of surviving in the wild on S4C.

-The challenge took place

-around my home town of Porthmadog.

-I'm considering my next challenge.

-Y Dyn Gwyllt airs on Thursday

-at 9.30pm on S4C.

-Tomorrow, Gerallt's at a Plygain

-service to mark the Epiphany season.

-Daf meets a young man who recycles

-wellingtons in Pembrokeshire.

-Our guest is the former footballer

-and Sgorio commentator...

-..Gwennan Harries.

-You can also win big money

-in our Fancy A Fortune? competition.

-# Fancy A Fortune? #

-There's 1,000 up for grabs.

-Wherever the wheel stops

-you can win up to 1,000.

-It's time for us to play

-Fancy A Fortune?

-Stand by your phone

-as I could be calling you.

-Let's see how much you've won.

-You've won 75.

-You've won 75.

-

-Thank you very much.

-# Fancy A Fortune? #

-Yes, Fancy A Fortune? is back

-and there's a chance to win 1,000!

-We'll reveal the question tomorrow

-and call the lucky viewer as well.

-Until tomorrow,

-it's goodnight from me and Carwyn.
