-on this bright Wednesday afternoon.

-Anna Elias is having a makeover

-Welcome to you both.

-On today's programme, the New Year

-has yet to reach one area of Wales.

-We'll have news of a special

-celebration in the Gwaun Valley.

-It's National Milk Day so that's

-what Alison Huw will be discussing.

-Gerwyn Morgan talks about his new

-book about Beulah in Ceredigion...

-..as we open up the covers

-of our Book Club.

-Hana Medi continues to travel across

-Wales to look at another collection.

-Today's collector is from Boncath.

-She takes this

-collecting business seriously.

-Yes, indeed,

-there are hundreds of them.

-Stay with us for the next 50 minutes

-or so and welcome to Prynhawn Da.

-We start with one of you having

-a makeover from Huw and the team.

-Anna Elias is a mother of three

-from Llangyndeyrn.

-I'm from Llangyndeyrn.

-I've moved back there

-with my family.

-I'm married and have three children.

-We also have a budgie!

-What is your job?

-They call me Mary Poppins!

-I work on the Children's Ward

-at Glangwili.

-I've lost my voice.

-I think I picked up a cold

-from one of the children.

-Mari nominated you for a make-over.

-She's a great friend

-and she deserves a treat.

-You are the boss too!

-I've been working at the ward

-for the longest.

-We've been there for over 20 years.

-Princess Diana also visited the ward

-when we were there.

-How many kids go through the ward?

-We get thousands of children

-coming to the ward.

-We take emergencies and those for

-elective surgeries.

-We also welcome those children

-with cancer.

-We provide them with early

-surgeries and treatment.

-You cheer up the kids.

-We also have a bag of tricks.

-Many children like this farting

-brain that makes a funny noise.

-It makes children laugh

-who are waiting for treatment.

-They're able to find Wally whilst

-giving blood.

-It distracts them.

-A lot of tips there to take their

-mind off it.

-We're meant to wear black socks but

-I wear colourful ones.

-This makes a child smile

-and you make friends with them.

-You have a big year ahead.

-Mari, Anna has a busy year ahead.

-Anna will be married for 20 years.

-I hoped that we would go away.

-Sorry, Mam, I had to say that!

-What do you want Huw to do?

-I don't mind what Huw does today.

-My hair hasn't been cut in a while.

-You usually wear an uniform.

-There's an uniform in work.

-We wear purple shirts.

-They know we are fun!

-We tend to bring toys to children

-who we give medicine to.

-Thank you.

-Enjoy your day with us.

-Most of us have already forgotten

-about our New Year celebrations.

-The fizz is flat

-and 2016 seems a long time ago.

-For some in Wales, however,

-the New Year hasn't arrived yet.

-They will be welcoming 2017

-on Friday morning, and this is why.

-The Old New Year is the original

-New Year which existed before 1752.

-That is when Britain

-got into line with Europe...

-..and adopted the Gregorian calendar

-instead of the Julian calendar.

-13 days were erased to ensure the

-accuracy of the Christian calendar.

-But not everyone

-was happy about this.

-Some areas continued

-to follow the old calendar...

-..like Cwm Gwaun

-in North Pembrokeshire.

-For the people of this valley,

-13 January is a very important day.

-Children and young people visit

-the farms in all weather to sing.

-They are warmly welcomed

-everywhere they go.

-They meet up at the end of the day

-to celebrate the New Year.

-Happy New Year!

-One of the those who will be

-celebrating this Friday...

-..is our next guest,

-Gethin Davies.

-He is the fifth generation

-to celebrate the Old New Year...

-..in the Gwaun Valley.

-Welcome to the programme.

-What will be happening?

-The children of the area will sing

-Calennig around the houses.

-Everyone enjoys and looks forward

-to 13 January.

-It's also a great excuse to have a

-day off from school!

-You get some money too!

-Financially, we make a lot!

-How much preparation is there?

-There isn't much preparation.

-We go over the songs and get ready

-to go.

-How important is the tradition to

-you?

-It's important to keep this old

-tradition alive.

-Not everyone celebrates it.

-Back in 2010,

-we were stuck in the snow.

-We managed to get around

-the houses.

-We had a week off

-from school that year.

-You celebrate at night.

-There are celebrations in the

-evening and we enjoy some soup.

-We sit around the fireplace

-and sing traditions songs.

-We spread out over the houses.

-There about eight or nine

-of us squashed into a car!

-Dark-haired people are lucky in the

-New Year.

-It's good luck for a dark-haired man

-to walk in the house first...

-..at the start of the new year.

-You play a lot of rugby.

-Our rugby team

-has been very successful.

-You played the Cymoedd in the final.

-We didn't have a great time during

-half time...

-..but lifted the cup in the end.

-You have won a Welsh cap.

-I won a cap for under 16s

-last year.

-We beat the English too.

-I'm also training at the Scarlets

-academy.

-I'm also at college.

-You are a busy man.

-It's tough to juggle

-the rugby and the college work.

-The aim is to win a Wales cap!

-Back to the Old New Year, what are

-your plans?

-I will rehearse the songs

-in the morning.

-Happy New Year to you!

-After the break,

-Alison Huw discusses milk products.

-See you in a few minutes.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back and welcome also

-to Alison Huw.

-It's National Milk Day so going to

-you're talking about milk products.

-There's so many milk products.

-The milk industry is very important

-to us in Wales.

-People have turned off milk.

-It's sad to think that 6M glasses of

-milk are wasted in the UK every day.

-That's a lot.

-We throw it away at home.

-Milk is third on the list of foods

-that are most commonly thrown away.

-It's quite frightening.

-It's important to keep milk stored

-in the right way.

-You probably keep your milk

-in the door of your fridge.

-Every time you open the door, it is

-faced with a different temperature.

-It might be convenient

-but it's not right.

-You should keep it in

-the body of the fridge.

-Milk freezes very well.

-It defrosts quickly too.

-The colour will come back.

-It's worth freezing a few pints.

-I always freeze a couple of pints

-before going on holiday.

-Take it out when you get back

-and it will be fine in the morning.

-Milk does expand when it freezes.

-Take the top off first.

-What's the difference

-between these milks?

-There are many different milks.

-Gold top milk is out of fashion.

-It still only has 5% milk.

-Full-fat milk is actually

-a low-fat food and is under 5% fat.

-Full-fat milk contains about 4% fat

-which is quite low.

-It contains more Vitamin A and E

-than skimmed or semi-skimmed milk.

-There are more vitamins

-in full-fat milk.

-Vitamins A and D are in milk too.

-It is low in fat.

-There is no reason

-to stop having blue milk.

-It's a great source of calcium...

-..and is good for children

-and the elderly.

-Kids should have full fat milk.

-Semi-skimmed milk

-contains about 2% fat.

-It has more calcium

-that full-fat milk.

-It is the most popular milk.

-It tastes similar to blue milk.

-Skimmed milk is low in fat and

-calories but high in calcium.

-It has less taste

-and fewer vitamins.

-It's great for sauces.

-1% Fat Milk is a

-relatively new product.

-It contains 1% fat.

-Filtered milk apparently

-can be kept for up to 45 days.

-The fat is scattered

-around the milk.

-The milk is forced through

-small holes at high pressure.

-Some people do have allergies

-to milk.

-A2 milk has had the Casein A1

-protein taken out.

-This protein is associated with

-digestion problems.

-Lactose-free cow's milk is for

-people who can't digest lactose.

-Pro Active Milk

-is a relatively new product.

-It's aimed at those who are worried

-about cholesterol levels.

-Plant chemicals and natural steroids

-are mixed with skimmed milk.

-Kefir has been around for centuries.

-It is originally

-from the Middle East.

-High temperatures tend to make the

-milk go off in those countries.

-Natural yeast is added to milk and

-allowed to ferment for a few hours.

-Kefir is a bit acidic

-and is good for our digestion.

-Milk that has turned is great

-for making scones or soda bread.

-Anna Elias is here for a makeover

-from Huw and the girls.

-How are things looking, Huw?

-Things are shaping up well, here.

-I don't know who is more nervous

-- Anna or Abi, our new team member!

-Abi's gone all quiet

-and she's never like this!

-Welcome to the team, Abi,

-and we'll return to you shortly.

-What are plans for the hair, Ruth?

-It hasn't been cut in a long time.

-Anna's got curly hair, she likes

-the length, so we'll keep it.

-The layers have grown out.

-I've got a technical question

-for you.

-Do you have to be more careful

-when cutting curly hair...

-..because the shorter the hair,

-the tighter the curls will be?

-It depends on the style of curl

-and Anna has quite soft curls.

-It isn't tight

-as the layers have grown out.

-But once I trim it,

-it will tighten slightly.

-Why haven't you had

-a haircut recently?

-Poor laziness!

-Thanks for being honest!

-Ruth's enjoying cutting it.

-We'll shorten the layers

-and dry-blow it differently.

-I'll use a medium-size brush.

-It creates a curl,

-but not an everyday-style curl.

-Do you just wash and go?

-Do you just wash and go?

-

-Yes, I slip an Alice band in and go.

-You don't Ruth to create

-any fiddly styles.

-Why skin type does Anna have, Abi?

-Why skin type does Anna have, Abi?

-

-Her skin is quite dry.

-I'll apply some foundation

-and primer.

-We've picked out the clothes and

-this colour is great to match navy.

-If we use black clothing,

-we'll use this palette.

-Anna doesn't wear a lot of make-up,

-so she only needs a touch of it.

-I won't apply a lot of make-up

-because it will strange for you.

-You'll give Anna a step-by-step

-guide on how to apply the make-up.

-Anna's job entails her bending

-down with the children.

-Can she still wear her Alice band?

-She can wash her hair, leave it

-and just stick an Alice band in.

-But if she's going out, she can

-blow-dry it for a different look.

-Would you go to the trouble

-of doing this, Anna?

-Yes, if there's a special event.

-Ruth can get rid of people

-once she styles their hair!

-Ruth has made-over people for years

-and they're still her clients!

-Yes, it's lovely.

-Anna and I have to come to some

-compromise over the clothes now.

-Let's see how it goes

-as I'm always right!

-We look forward to seeing the

-final reveal a little bit later.

-Time now to tell you

-what's on tonight's Heno at 7.00pm.

-We're live in Llanberis for a new

-venture promising pizza and a pint.

-We'll also look at fitness walks

-at the National Botanic Garden.

-Angharad will be joined by

-two stars of Gwaith Cartref.

-Sue Roderick and Mabli Jen Eustace,

-also known as Llywela and Macsen...

-..will be telling us about

-the new series of the S4C drama.

-After the break, we'll discuss

-the new book by Gerwyn Morgan.

-See you in a few minutes.

-.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-We open our Book Club with the

-author and historian, Gerwyn Morgan.

-He is here to discuss

-the new book...

-..Beulah: The Story of a

-Ceredigion Village and its People.

-Welcome to the programme.

-Thank you.

-Where is exactly is Beulah?

-It's Hywel Teifi Edwards most

-important village in Ceredigion.

-What kind of place is it?

-Beulah is on the B4333 between

-Newcastle Emlyn and Aberporth.

-It is high up with the sea

-on one side...

-..and the Preseli on the other.

-It has changed a lot.

-The chapel has lost

-its influence a lot.

-It's important to write down

-the history.

-I wanted to show the change

-in the village.

-It must be kept for the future.

-I have concentrated on the people

-and their stories.

-In the book, I tell the story

-of every house in the village...

-..and of every family

-which lived there.

-People should know who has lived

-in their houses.

-The farms are still run

-by old families.

-Beulah people are hard-working.

-When I moved there,

-everyone spoke Welsh.

-I married into the village.

-Only half speak Welsh now.

-Many villages around Wales

-face similar challenges.

-Our people leave for Cardiff or

-further afield.

-The chapel and the school

-was once everything.

-People move away for work.

-The numbers at the school

-has fallen.

-You have penned more than one book

-about Beulah.

-I wrote another book in 2015.

-It was the 100th anniversary

-of the start of WWI.

-Only four died in WWI.

-It was called 'Beulah Remembers

-1914-18 1939-45'.

-Another four died in WWII.

-This new book is more comprehensive.

-This new book

-took six years to write.

-The village has changed

-whilst I wrote it.

-I have missed some of the people

-who have died.

-Margaret Davies had noted

-down sayings from the village.

-I got them from her family.

-I want people to buy the book.

-There are many photographs

-in the book.

-I was lucky that an exhibition

-took place in 2009.

-I collected 500 photos for

-that exhibition.

-Where can buy a copy?

-The book is Beulah: The story of a

-Ceredigion village and its people.

-The book is 12.99

-and available in local shops.

-After the break, Hana takes a look

-at a collection of plates and shoes.

-And we'll see a transformed Anna,

-so stay with us for the big reveal.

-.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-We continue with our series

-of collections now.

-Thanks to Beryl George who contacted

-us about her collection...

-..or should I say collections.

-Beryl certainly loves

-collecting things.

-Plates, crockery, shoes and scrap

-books, there's a bit of everything.

-Hana went to see part

-of her collections.

-COLLECTS A BIT OF EVERYTHING

-Let's start at the beginning, Beryl.

-How did you start collecting

-these plates?

-I was given a plate by someone

-and we've always kept them at home.

-I get plates from everyone

-and receive them on birthdays.

-The collection is interesting

-because there's so much variety.

-This plate displays the church

-where I got married...

-..my daughter got married

-and her daughter got married.

-It's the Carreg Wen church

-in Manordeifi.

-Speaking of churches, I went to

-the Vatican with Merched y Wawr.

-I was looking around

-and spotted red at the Vatican.

-I went to kneel and had a shock

-as the priest was behind me.

-He recognized my accent and we

-chatted and he came from St David's.

-This plate is from

-the Trebor Edwards tour.

-I had to buy a plate

-and it cost 30.

-It features the menu and Trebor

-and the captain have signed it.

-This is the oldest plate I've got

-and I've got several school plates.

-The grandpa plate is amusing.

-The plate from America

-is also interesting.

-I've got Eisteddfod plates

-but there wasn't one from Bala.

-If they release them again,

-I'll most probably get one.

-This year sees the launch of plates

-to mark 50 years of Merched y Wawr.

-A plate has been released

-but I haven't bought it yet.

-Another one

-to add to the collection.

-More to dust!

-There are hundreds of them,

-so where do you keep them all?

-I store some in a trunk

-in the hallway.

-I dust them now and again.

-You've also made your own plate.

-Yes, with Merched y Wawr

-at the pottery in Clunderwen.

-I made a plate with the names

-all of my grandchildren on it.

-Tomos, Dafydd, Guto,

-Glesni and Gwion.

-As well as displaying plates at home

-Beryl chats to groups about them.

-She also holds a quiz and donates

-all the money to cancer charities.

-Wherever I go to hold a quiz,

-people worry that they'll break.

-But I've got superglue and the only

-one that I've broken is this plate.

-I broke it myself at home

-and repaired it.

-You look after them quite well.

-There's no problem

-as they're quite tough.

-Beryl, you'll never run out

-of plates or shoes.

-When did you start collecting

-ornamental shoes?

-At the age of nine or ten, I had

-trouble getting shoes to suit me.

-I had a high instep

-and had to wear boys shoes.

-There wasn't much choice of shoes

-available then.

-The man in the shop said I wouldn't

-have any trouble wearing high heels.

-He was right

-and it hasn't bothered me.

-As you can see, there are large,

-small ones and even rugby boots.

-I was given a shoe at Christmas

-that lights up.

-Is there one with

-an interesting story?

-They all have interesting stories.

-There's one that's a money box

-and decorated with mice.

-Those who don't like mice

-don't like to see it.

-Thank you, Beryl for your company.

-Thank you for showing me

-your wonderful collection.

-Anna Elias has been in the studio

-having a makeover this afternoon.

-Before we reveal all, Huw, remind us

-of how Anna looked earlier today.

-When Anna arrived at the studio...

-..she liked wearing practical

-clothing.

-She wore a heavy jumper and jeans.

-She matched it with boots.

-Being comfortable was important.

-The aim today was for something

-different.

-It's completely different.

-I was roasting in that thick jumper.

-I think this new look is great.

-Anna was shocked at first.

-The look is more formal.

-She loved the blouse.

-We added some accessories.

-It's cold as well.

-The fur is on the collar.

-Anna holds a handbag that is big

-enough to carry anything.

-Everything is one tone.

-There's a peep-toe shoe.

-You could wear tights too.

-The lace is also nice.

-The hair was trimmed with layers.

-The length was kept.

-Straighteners were used

-and the curls are tighter.

-Could you do it yourself?

-I'll try.

-I've kept the make-up natural.

-She doesn't wear a lot of make-up.

-She does like to wear eyeliner.

-It's a natural look.

-I think I could find the time

-to create this look.

-Time is the problem.

-That's all from us this afternoon

-but Huw is back again tomorrow.

-There's no theme tomorrow.

-Dr Ann discusses head lice and Viv

-will have a collection of tools.

-Aled Jones: Dychwelyd Adref

-follows the news and weather on S4C.

-Goodbye.
