0:00:44 > 0:00:47- # You went, no care in the world
0:00:47 > 0:00:50- # Out, out of my life
0:00:50 > 0:00:53- # You did me harm and said nothing
0:00:53 > 0:00:55- # And left me speechless
0:00:56 > 0:00:59- # And my two hands behind my back
0:00:59 > 0:01:03- # With an emptiness in my head
0:01:04 > 0:01:08- # But I got up
0:01:10 > 0:01:13- # And went back down the same way

0:01:18 > 0:01:20- # I knew
0:01:21 > 0:01:25- # I was on my way back

0:01:33 > 0:01:36- # On my way back
0:01:40 > 0:01:45- # You were of the view - that you didn't want to see me
0:01:46 > 0:01:49- # It's not possible - to reveal my pain
0:01:49 > 0:01:51- # To anyone but you
0:01:52 > 0:01:53- # Well, I want you to see
0:01:53 > 0:01:57- # And believe me - this wasn't a start for me
0:01:58 > 0:02:00- # But when the day comes, - you will see
0:02:00 > 0:02:04- # I won't forgive you
0:02:05 > 0:02:10- # But I got up
0:02:11 > 0:02:14- # And went back down the same way
0:02:17 > 0:02:18- # Then
0:02:20 > 0:02:21- # I knew
0:02:22 > 0:02:27- # I was on my way back

0:17:34 > 0:17:37- Did you enjoy it? - Did you win anything?
0:17:39 > 0:17:42- Over 100! - Fair play. You enjoyed it then!
0:17:42 > 0:17:47- I bet you didn't enjoy yourself - as much as the next man onstage.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51- I think he enjoyed himself too much.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53- Please give him a warm welcome.
0:18:00 > 0:18:04- # I have a blue stallion - and it throws
0:18:05 > 0:18:10- # There's nothing like it - in Cardiganshire
0:18:10 > 0:18:12- # La la la la la la #
0:18:13 > 0:18:14- Oh!
0:18:16 > 0:18:19- What's going on here, then?
0:18:20 > 0:18:22- I've enjoyed myself today.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25- Everything was good.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29- I had a job - catching up with the horses.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31- They were going much too fast.
0:18:32 > 0:18:37- One minute they were there, - the next they were there.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39- It made me all giddy.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44- We arrived at Ffos Las - at ten in the morning.
0:18:45 > 0:18:49- The first thing Dilwyn and I did...
0:18:49 > 0:18:51- ..was to go to the bar.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54- I said to Dilwyn...
0:18:55 > 0:18:57- .."Lucky we got drunk - before arriving."
0:18:58 > 0:19:02- With the price of the drinks, - we had no chance during the day.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08- Dilwyn and I - saw something very strange today.
0:19:09 > 0:19:14- As I came into Ffos Las, - what was on the side of the road...
0:19:15 > 0:19:17- ..was a cemetery.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20- In the cemetery were four people...
0:19:20 > 0:19:24- ..walking - around and around and around...
0:19:25 > 0:19:28- ..with a coffin on their shoulders.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30- Nothing wrong with that.
0:19:30 > 0:19:36- But we left Ffos Las - and those four people...
0:19:36 > 0:19:41- ..were still walking - around and around the cemetery...
0:19:41 > 0:19:44- ..with the same coffin - on their shoulders.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47- Dilwyn said, - "They've lost the plot."
0:19:53 > 0:19:58- Dilwyn was in a panic today. - I'd never seen him like this before.
0:19:59 > 0:20:04- We stopped in a pub near Ffos Las - for a pint on our way there.
0:20:06 > 0:20:11- He came off his stool and said, - "Damn, damn, damn, damn!"
0:20:12 > 0:20:15- I said, "Dilwyn, what's wrong?"
0:20:15 > 0:20:17- He said, "Damn, damn, damn!
0:20:17 > 0:20:20- "I should have brought - the kitchen table."
0:20:21 > 0:20:23- I said, "Why do you say that?"
0:20:23 > 0:20:26- "Because that's where - I've left the tickets!"
0:20:32 > 0:20:35- We had dramatics - in Carmarthen this morning.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39- We'd stopped to withdraw some cash.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43- There was a huge queue - at the cashpoint.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47- A little old woman - was trying to get money out.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50- She was having trouble.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53- So she turned round - and asked Dilwyn...
0:20:54 > 0:20:58- .."Excuse me, - can you help me, please?
0:20:58 > 0:21:02- "Can you help me check my balance?"
0:21:02 > 0:21:04- So Dilwyn pushed her over!

0:22:10 > 0:22:14- An hour passed, two hours passed - - nothing.
0:22:14 > 0:22:18- After three hours, - Gerwyn left the farm.
