-I'm Wyn. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
-I started the funeral directors' -business back in 1984. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:26 | |
-Three or four years after that, -we started making headstones. - -Un gair yn ol yr Oxford. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:32 | |
-It became part of our work. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:34 | |
-I'm Nia from Gorslas. - -en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorslas | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
-I've been home from college -for about three years. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
-I've been helping out -with the business. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:47 | |
-I've always been involved -in some way or other. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:51 | |
-Have you finished? | 0:00:52 | 0:00:53 | |
-Have you finished? - -Almost. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:54 | |
-Another five minutes. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
-Another five minutes. - -Good. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:57 | |
-I enjoy my tea. -I could drink it all day. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
-My trade is carpentry. -Then I started doing funerals. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:07 | |
-I couldn't do carpentry work then - -working in people's homes... | 0:01:08 | 0:01:12 | |
-..because of the demands -of the funeral business. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
-We decided to start -making headstones... | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
-..because there was no-one -doing that in the area. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
-I've learned most -of what I know from Dad. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
-I started off driving the cars, -but now I do a bit of everything. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:29 | |
-I'm learning as I go. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:31 | |
-When you're dealing with people... | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
-..it's important -to do your best for them. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:42 | |
-They're going through -a difficult time. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
-You feel that you want to help them. -That's what we try to do. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:49 | |
-We do our best. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:51 | |
-The headstones -is a different kind of work. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:57 | |
-It's nice to do both. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
-One part is more difficult -than the other. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:03 | |
-It's nice to see the headstones when -they're finished. They look good. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:09 | |
-I enjoy it. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:12 | |
-Funerals start at about 1,800... | 0:02:14 | 0:02:18 | |
-..and go up to about 2,200. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:22 | |
-The rates vary depending on whether -it's a burial or a cremation... | 0:02:23 | 0:02:27 | |
-..or a church service -or a service in a crematorium. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
-Then there's the cost -of the flowers. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
-Flowers are priced separately. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:36 | |
-The headstones start at 600 -and go up to 2,000. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:40 | |
-It depends on what they choose. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
-We hold about 140 funerals -in a year. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
-There are far fewer burials. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:53 | |
-We use the crematorium -a lot more than cemeteries nowadays. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
-Comical things happen sometimes, -but we can't disclose those. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:03 | |
-We find that people are quite -ordinary around here... | 0:03:04 | 0:03:08 | |
-..so we're okay. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:09 |
