0:20:34 > 0:20:38- Unfortunately, it cut off his ear.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41- It went into the concrete mixer.

0:20:47 > 0:20:51- They took Will - to the Casuality in Cardigan.

0:20:52 > 0:20:57- His co-workers did their best to get - hold of his ear in the cement.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19- The lads asked, "How do you know?"

0:21:19 > 0:21:23- Will said, - "There was a pencil behind mine."

0:29:23 > 0:29:27- John and Mari had been - married for years...

0:29:27 > 0:29:29- ..and had celebrated - their Ruby Wedding.

0:29:29 > 0:29:33- Unfortunately, John was very poorly, - and was in bed.

0:29:34 > 0:29:36- On his deathbed, actually.

0:29:37 > 0:29:41- He talked to Mari - about the children's successes.

0:29:41 > 0:29:43- They had four sons.

0:29:56 > 0:30:00- "But I'm very disappointed - in the youngest.

0:30:00 > 0:30:04- "He didn't arrive - until ten years after the others.

0:30:04 > 0:30:08- "He doesn't stick at anything. - He doesn't like work at all.

0:30:10 > 0:30:14- "I want to ask you something, Mari, - before I leave this life.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19- "Am I young Willy's father?"

0:30:21 > 0:30:27- Mari replied, "With hand on my - heart, I can say you're the father."

0:30:28 > 0:30:32- She blushed a little, - and left the room quite suddenly.

0:30:32 > 0:30:34- She shut the door and said...

0:30:34 > 0:30:38- .."Thank goodness he didn't ask who - was the father of the other three."

0:30:48 > 0:30:52- People make a lot of fuss - of birthdays these days.

0:30:53 > 0:30:57- Did you ladies know that - an article of clothing you wear...

0:31:05 > 0:31:08- They made several alterations to it.

0:31:10 > 0:31:12- It shows more and hides less.

0:31:15 > 0:31:19- I've written a proverb - to celebrate its birthday.

0:31:20 > 0:31:22- A bikini is like wire netting.

0:31:24 > 0:31:26- It defends the property...

0:31:26 > 0:31:29- ..without spoiling the scenery.

0:31:31 > 0:31:34- Talking of birthdays, - have you come across people...

0:31:35 > 0:31:37- ..who insist on knowing your age?

0:31:39 > 0:31:42- I've got a proverb - about age, for us men.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45- A man is as old as he looks.

0:31:47 > 0:31:49- And if he only looks...

0:31:50 > 0:31:51- ..he's too old.

0:32:02 > 0:32:06- Aelwyd Hafodwenog - was established in 1979.

0:36:13 > 0:36:15- 888

0:36:22 > 0:36:27- Dai and Mari - weren't very happy together.

0:36:27 > 0:36:29- Dai told his friend Will one day...

0:36:29 > 0:36:31- .."I'm going to get a divorce."

0:36:32 > 0:36:34- "Why is that?" asked Will.

0:36:34 > 0:36:38- Dai replied, "Mari hasn't spoken - to me for a month."

0:36:38 > 0:36:42- "Hold on!" said Will, - "Don't be too hasty.

0:36:42 > 0:36:47- "Wives like that - are very hard to find."

0:36:50 > 0:36:52- Can I offer a word of advice...

0:36:52 > 0:36:57- ..to every married couple here, - or who might be listening?

0:36:57 > 0:37:00- Never go to bed angry.

0:37:01 > 0:37:03- Stay up to fight it out!

0:37:07 > 0:37:11- It's very fashionable now - to walk along with dogs...

0:37:12 > 0:37:14- ..to walk dogs on a chain.

0:37:15 > 0:37:18- I was in Newcastle Emlyn mart - the other day...

0:37:19 > 0:37:23- ..when a woman stood next to me - with a Labrador on a chain.

0:37:23 > 0:37:25- She was a hippy cross.

0:37:27 > 0:37:31- I noticed that the dog - was really pulling on the chain.

0:37:33 > 0:37:35- It was looking for a tree trunk.

0:37:38 > 0:37:40- Then something strange happened.

0:37:41 > 0:37:46- The dog used my wellingtons - as a tree trunk.

0:37:48 > 0:37:52- I felt something - going into my wellington...

0:37:52 > 0:37:54- ..like a cup of tea being poured in.

0:37:55 > 0:37:57- Fair play to the woman, she said...

0:37:59 > 0:38:01- .."Are you alright, love?"

0:38:03 > 0:38:05- "Yes, love," I said, "I'm alright.

0:38:05 > 0:38:07- "You can pull the chain now."

0:38:18 > 0:38:21- We're nearing the end - of another NOSON LAWEN.

0:38:39 > 0:38:44- As I said earlier, they used - to dig for gold here many years ago.

0:38:45 > 0:38:48- Gold is rare and precious, - as you know.

0:38:48 > 0:38:53- I can say exactly the same thing - about our next guest's talent.

0:38:54 > 0:38:56- Friends, as our finale...

0:38:57 > 0:39:00- ..give a warm welcome - to Dafydd Iwan.

0:39:06 > 0:39:09- I happened to be in the area - recently, in Llanfynydd.

0:39:10 > 0:39:13- It was the first time - I'd been to Llanfynydd.

0:39:13 > 0:39:17- That night, someone said, - "I remember you in Pumsaint...

0:39:17 > 0:39:21- "..years ago, singing - a duet with Ray Gravell.

0:39:21 > 0:39:25- "You said that Gwynfor Evans - had lost his seat."

0:39:25 > 0:39:27- I'd lost my seat on the council.

0:39:27 > 0:39:30- Ray Gravell had lost his place - in the Wales rugby team...

0:39:31 > 0:39:33- ..and we'd lost the referendum.

0:39:33 > 0:39:36- Then I said, - "Alright, we'll enjoy ourselves!"

0:39:36 > 0:39:40- But you can't always find a reason - to celebrate on Noson Lawen.

0:39:43 > 0:39:47- # The days pass by so quickly - - I can't stop them

0:39:50 > 0:39:55- # The wheel keeps spinning - faster to the end.

0:39:58 > 0:40:01- # The dear land of my fathers

0:40:01 > 0:40:05- # Can't withstand the changes

0:40:05 > 0:40:08- # And the wind would make

0:40:10 > 0:40:12- # The hardiest oak tree quake.

0:40:12 > 0:40:17- # But the old, old memories

0:40:17 > 0:40:21- # Will always break my heart

0:40:21 > 0:40:27- # And the old, old longing - still prevails

0:40:28 > 0:40:33- # And the old, old tears

0:40:55 > 0:41:00- # The road signs are in Welsh - along the motorway

0:41:03 > 0:41:07- # The motorway - which leads to England there.

0:41:11 > 0:41:14- # And the traffic's mad procession

0:41:14 > 0:41:18- # Transports the valley's children

0:41:18 > 0:41:21- # Away from their homeland

0:41:22 > 0:41:25- # To leave without a care.

0:41:25 > 0:41:30- # But the old, old memories

0:41:30 > 0:41:33- # Will always break my heart

0:42:08 > 0:42:12- # My grandma's house - is now a summer cottage

0:42:16 > 0:42:20- # The TV has replaced - old nursery rhymes.

0:42:23 > 0:42:27- # The language of the chapel

0:42:28 > 0:42:30- # Is flowing down the cable

0:42:31 > 0:42:34- # In a never-ending carnival.

0:42:35 > 0:42:37- # It's changing with the times.

0:42:38 > 0:42:42- # But the old, old memories

0:42:43 > 0:42:46- # Will always break my heart

0:43:44 > 0:43:46- # Of Wales. #

0:43:59 > 0:44:02- Thank you. For our last song, - I'll sing an old favourite.

0:44:02 > 0:44:06- It's about the things - that mean so much to you and me.

0:44:06 > 0:44:10- We don't have to explain, only - a fool asks why snow is white.

0:44:10 > 0:44:12- Thank you.

0:44:18 > 0:44:22- # When the sun's on the mountain

0:44:22 > 0:44:26- # When the wind's on the sea

0:44:27 > 0:44:30- # When the field's full of flowers

0:44:31 > 0:44:34- # And birds are in the tree.

0:44:35 > 0:44:38- # When the tears of my beloved

0:44:39 > 0:44:42- # Are like gossamer dew

0:44:43 > 0:44:46- # I know in that one instant

0:44:47 > 0:44:50- # That this is what is true.

0:44:51 > 0:44:55- # I know the meaning of freedom

0:45:12 > 0:45:15- # You can look - dumbfounded all night.

0:45:16 > 0:45:19- # Only fools need to question

0:45:20 > 0:45:23- # Why snow is white.

0:45:30 > 0:45:34- # When the words of my comrades

0:45:35 > 0:45:38- # Are mellow like fine wine

0:45:39 > 0:45:42- # And old familiar phrases

0:45:43 > 0:45:46- # Trip from these lips of mine

0:45:47 > 0:45:50- # When I hear the sweet notes

0:45:51 > 0:45:55- # Of an age-old melody

0:45:55 > 0:45:59- # I know what 'belonging'

0:45:59 > 0:46:02- # And 'living' mean to me.

0:46:44 > 0:46:47- # When I see the scarred miner

0:46:47 > 0:46:50- # And the bloodstains on the slate

0:46:51 > 0:46:55- # When the haystacks all remind me

0:46:55 > 0:46:59- # Of the tired crofter's fate.

0:46:59 > 0:47:03- # When I see the humble schoolboy

0:47:04 > 0:47:07- # Branded with the old Welsh Not

0:47:08 > 0:47:11- # I know I've got to stand up

0:47:12 > 0:47:15- # For my brother and his lot.

0:48:37 > 0:48:39- A rural audience at its best.

0:48:39 > 0:48:43- It was good to see new talent - mixing in with the old hands.

0:48:43 > 0:48:47- I think it'll be a fine - programme, when it's shown.

0:49:03 > 0:49:04- It's hot and sweaty there.

0:49:05 > 0:49:07- It's fine if you're just singing...

0:49:07 > 0:49:10- ..but if you play the guitar, - your hands get slippery.

0:49:10 > 0:49:13- So I prefer my job to yours.

0:49:13 > 0:49:14- So I prefer my job to yours.- - Yes. Guitars go out of tune.

0:49:15 > 0:49:15- Was it out of tune?

0:49:15 > 0:49:16- Was it out of tune?- - Mm.

0:49:16 > 0:49:18- I thought it was me!

0:49:19 > 0:49:21- That's OK, then! It was his fault.
