-We'll also join -a World Record attempt... | 0:00:37 | 0:00:41 | |

-It's mental health illness -awareness week. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:53 | |
-It's an illness that can affect -people in different ways. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
-Alun has more on this story. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
-Cuppa, boys, let's have a cuppa. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
-Depression. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:10 | |
-An illness which leaves -no physical scars... | 0:01:10 | 0:01:14 | |
-..but for the sufferer, -it can excruciating. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
-About two years, -I had a similar experience. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
-An extreme bout of depression. -I'll share my experiences with you. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:24 | |
-We should grab every opportunity... | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
-..to raise awareness -of this important subject. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
-It's no surprise to anyone... | 0:01:35 | 0:01:36 | |
-..that when I found Mam -at the bottom of the stairs... | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
-..still warm, but dead... | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
-..the shock triggered the illness. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
-Looking back now, after coming -through the experience... | 0:01:45 | 0:01:49 | |
-..it's probable -that it had started years ago. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
-Mam was 91 years old when she died -and I'd been worried about her. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
-The snow of 2013 -put immense pressure on the farm. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:02 | |
-Many walls -were destroyed and damaged. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:06 | |
-I'd felt for a while that -I was running around in circles. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:10 | |
-I didn't understand -what was happening to me. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
-I had this knot in my stomach -all the time. I couldn't sleep. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:18 | |
-One night... | 0:02:18 | 0:02:19 | |
-..and this is when I realised that -I had to do something about it... | 0:02:19 | 0:02:24 | |
-..and ask someone for help. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
-I was lying in bed, -it was raining... | 0:02:26 | 0:02:29 | |
-..I could hear the river -flowing outside. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
-I thought I can put a stop to this. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
-The way to do it was to jump into -that river and switch it all off. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:40 | |
-I spoke to Catrin, -my partner, about it. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
-I still haven't told Elan, my -daughter, she doesn't know about it. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:51 | |
-That first disclosure, -visiting the family doctor. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:55 | |
-Farmers don't visit -their GPs these days. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
-He'd never met me before. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:00 | |
-I told him about the symptoms. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
-I thought I had problems -with my stomach. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
-He said the symptoms -were classic depression symptoms. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:09 | |
-In the end, a solution was found... | 0:03:15 | 0:03:17 | |
-..and I can only thank the local -community and everyone around me. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:22 | |
-A lad living next door -started to call. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:24 | |
-Another neighbour would phone -to ask what I was doing. | 0:03:24 | 0:03:28 | |
-He'd come over to help me -sort out some sheep. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
-I'd do nothing most of the day, -the minimum possible. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
-Something else that happened... | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
-..and I have reason to thank -the National Assembly for this... | 0:03:38 | 0:03:42 | |
-..I was part of the Glastir scheme -and had to maintain stone walls. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:46 | |
-250 metres of wall had to be -maintained before the end of 2015. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
-I carried on with the work -and employed someone to help me. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:55 | |
-Dermot O'Neill from Corris -came to help me. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:59 | |
-I wasn't eating, -I didn't want to eat. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:03 | |
-When your body's working, -your appetite returns. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:09 | |
-That returned gradually. -The energy returned gradually. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:13 | |
-People would call and say, -"Don't worry, I know what it is. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:17 | |
-"I had it when my wife left me." | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
-The most unexpected people. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
-I realised suddenly -that this wasn't unique... | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
-..it could happen to anyone, -wherever they are, whatever they do. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:30 | |
-Depression is a major problem -for men in rural areas. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:36 | |
-The highest rates of suicide -are in the farming sector. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:41 | |
-Emma Picton-Jones -lost her husband to mental illness. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:45 | |
-He was an agricultural contractor -from a young age. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
-He was a tractor boy at heart. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
-He spent a lot of his youth driving -tractors and enjoyed himself. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:57 | |
-He decided to buy a digger -and wanted to go and work on farms. | 0:04:57 | 0:05:02 | |
-Daniel had been suffering with his -mental health for a number of years. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:07 | |
-It gradually got worse. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:09 | |
-It went in peaks and troughs -in the last few years. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
-On the 5th of July, my husband -decided to take his own life. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:17 | |
-On the outside, it looked like he -had everything. It was a huge shock. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:22 | |
-It's had a massive effect -on all of us... | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
-..but I decided -it couldn't have a negative effect. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
-We had to make something positive -out of this. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:32 | |
-I set up a charity to support -people... | 0:05:33 | 0:05:35 | |
-..who are suffering -with their mental health. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
-The DPJ Foundation, -named after Daniel's initials. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
-We started last year by looking at -where we could spend the money... | 0:05:43 | 0:05:48 | |
-..to do some good in the -agricultural community right away. | 0:05:48 | 0:05:52 | |
-We set up -mental health awareness training. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:55 | |
-We trained 38 people who work -within the agricultural community. | 0:05:56 | 0:06:00 | |
-We gave them the tools to recognise -mental health illnesses. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:05 | |
-The other strand we're going down... | 0:06:06 | 0:06:08 | |
-..we're looking at the preventative -side of mental health... | 0:06:08 | 0:06:13 | |
-..and how we can support men -to give them the tools to help... | 0:06:13 | 0:06:17 | |
-..before they get to a point that -they make the decision Daniel did. | 0:06:17 | 0:06:22 | |
-One problem of living in a rural -area is the lack of expertise... | 0:06:24 | 0:06:28 | |
-..for mental illness, -something which I encountered. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:32 | |
-Who do you turn to? | 0:06:32 | 0:06:34 | |
-Dr Becca Stilwell is a psychologist -for the Hywel Dda health board. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:38 | |
-Becca, is there a way to define -depression in a short sentence? | 0:06:39 | 0:06:43 | |
-Or is it something that varies -from person to person? | 0:06:44 | 0:06:48 | |
-There is a list of symptoms... | 0:06:48 | 0:06:50 | |
-..I'd search for -in someone with depression. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:54 | |
-Their sleep patterns are different. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
-The way they eat is different, -their energy is different. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:00 | |
-The way they think about things. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
-They don't think so clearly. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
-Has the person changed? | 0:07:06 | 0:07:08 | |
-What's useful to know is how someone -has changed over a period of time. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:14 | |
-For me... | 0:07:15 | 0:07:16 | |
-..the frightening part... | 0:07:16 | 0:07:20 | |
-..was not being able -to understand what was happening. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:24 | |
-The knots in the stomach, -the feelings of panic... | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
-..not wanting to eat -because of the stomach pains. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
-I didn't want to speak to anyone -but I didn't understand what it was. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:36 | |
-I didn't have a name for it. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:39 | |
-Not having a name for it -makes us panic even more. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:43 | |
-Some people end up thinking -that they have a physical illness. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:48 | |
-That's the line that I follow. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:50 | |
-It was physical for me, initially... | 0:07:50 | 0:07:53 | |
-..and then I realised -it was all in my head. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:56 | |
-You have more negative thoughts... | 0:07:56 | 0:07:59 | |
-..your glass is always half empty, -never half full. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:04 | |
-There are changes in the way -we think. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:07 | |
-It's important to discuss -what's going on with your GP... | 0:08:07 | 0:08:11 | |
-..so that they can determine -the next step. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
-Medicines aren't for everyone... | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
-..but it helps some people -to find the kick to carry on... | 0:08:17 | 0:08:23 | |
-..and do whatever it is -that helps them. | 0:08:23 | 0:08:26 | |
-For me, as a farmer, something -was driving me out of the house. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:30 | |
-Responsibility for the animals... | 0:08:30 | 0:08:33 | |
-..or the need to build a dry stone -wall for an environmental scheme. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:38 | |
-That pulled me out of myself, -to some extent. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:41 | |
-Knowing that work is something -that's important to you... | 0:08:41 | 0:08:45 | |
-..not letting people down -is important to you. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:49 | |
-That helps find the motivation -to keep going. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:52 | |
-For someone else, that would be -too overwhelming for them. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:57 | |
-To know that they had a wall -to build... | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
-..or that they had someone to help, -it might be too much for them. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:04 | |
-It's important to know the person -and know what's good for them. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:09 | |
-Talking about mental illness... | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
-..and understanding what keeps -that illness there is important... | 0:09:12 | 0:09:17 | |
-..however we manage to help -that person understand it. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:22 | |
-Back in 2015, Canon Eileen Davies -formed Tir Dewi... | 0:09:26 | 0:09:30 | |
-..which support farmers -suffering with depression... | 0:09:30 | 0:09:34 | |
-..or who have other concerns, that -live in the old county of Dyfed. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:39 | |
-Today, Cogent are holding an open -day at Rhydygors, Carmarthenshire. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:44 | |
-Eileen uses these events to spread -the message about the service. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:49 | |
-Why did you establish Tir Dewi -in the first place? | 0:09:50 | 0:09:54 | |
-There was a demand -and there was a need. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:57 | |
-For that reason, we decided -to bring communities together... | 0:09:58 | 0:10:02 | |
-..to give our farmers an answer and -show that we're there to help them. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:07 | |
-That's what's important to us. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:10 | |
-You're a farmer too. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:12 | |
-I farm every day, I milk the cattle -in the morning and evening. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:17 | |
-I feel privileged to do so. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
-By doing that, I understand -what farmers are going through. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:23 | |
-I love the life myself. -I know what pressure they're under. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:28 | |
-From the examples -you've already encountered... | 0:10:28 | 0:10:32 | |
-..is the situation -for farmers difficult? | 0:10:32 | 0:10:36 | |
-Is depression a serious problem? | 0:10:36 | 0:10:39 | |
-Most certainly - -there's a lot of loneliness. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:41 | |
-A farmer can complete his day using -machinery and technology on his own. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:48 | |
-He has no-one to talk to. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:50 | |
-That's the problem. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:54 | |
-This loneliness can create -more sorrow for farmers. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:59 | |
-For me, when I had depression, -I realised at some point... | 0:10:59 | 0:11:04 | |
-..that most people need time. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
-The improvement happens over time. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:09 | |
-Most certainly. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:11 | |
-For anyone who has depression, they -may have suffered for a long time... | 0:11:11 | 0:11:16 | |
-..without knowing precisely -what's wrong with them. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:20 | |
-It's an illness surrounded by taboo, -especially in the farming industry. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:26 | |
-Farmers think they are strong enough -to face anything... | 0:11:26 | 0:11:30 | |
-..but we'll be by that person's side -until they come through it. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:35 | |
-However long it takes, -we'll be there. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:37 | |
-If I tried to sum up the process -and the solution for me... | 0:11:40 | 0:11:45 | |
-..and I feel fine now even though I -get emotional looking back at it... | 0:11:45 | 0:11:49 | |
-..there was a time when I thought -I had to end it all... | 0:11:50 | 0:11:53 | |
-..even though I knew -that Catrin loved me... | 0:11:53 | 0:11:57 | |
-..I had a 20-year-old daughter. | 0:11:57 | 0:12:00 | |
-All these things that should stop -you thinking about ending your life. | 0:12:00 | 0:12:05 | |
-People around you, -that's what saved me. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:09 | |
-I hope I can help others by talking -about this, right here, right now. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:17 | |
-There's no need to hide it. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:19 | |
-We've hidden it too much, -we haven't talked about it enough. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:23 | |
-The problem for a lot of people is -they don't know what it is. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:26 | |

-To guarantee -a sustainable environment... | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
-..it's important to conserve -our natural resources... | 0:12:51 | 0:12:55 | |
-..air, water, earth. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:57 | |
-Pesticides are an important part -of every day life for famers... | 0:12:57 | 0:13:01 | |
-..but they can cause serious -problems for the environment... | 0:13:02 | 0:13:06 | |
-..if they're not stored, used -and disposed of correctly. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:10 | |
-Meinir has more on this story. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:12 | |
-Welsh Water has launched a new -scheme to encourage farmers... | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
-..growers and landowners -in specific areas... | 0:13:19 | 0:13:22 | |
-..to dispose of pesticides -and herbicides safely... | 0:13:22 | 0:13:26 | |
-..to safeguard water quality -and wildlife. | 0:13:26 | 0:13:29 | |
-The scheme we have right now -is a scheme called PestSmart. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:33 | |
-This includes pesticides. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
-In Welsh Water, we place an emphasis -on monitoring freshwater quality. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:42 | |
-In some areas, we've seen -rises in the levels of pesticides. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:48 | |
-That's something we want to monitor -and keep under control. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:54 | |
-To reduce the risk to our customers -for drinking water quality... | 0:13:54 | 0:13:59 | |
-..we want to reduce the levels -of pesticides... | 0:13:59 | 0:14:03 | |
-..entering the rivers -in the first place. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:06 | |
-Despite the rise in levels, -the levels are still low... | 0:14:07 | 0:14:10 | |
-..and pose a low risk -to people drinking the water. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:14 | |
-What's appeal to farmers -and landowners? | 0:14:14 | 0:14:17 | |
-The scheme -makes it easier for people... | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
-..to dispose -of their pesticides safely. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
-It will also improve -the quality of freshwater... | 0:14:23 | 0:14:27 | |
-..which will in turn -improve the environment. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:31 | |
-It also improves treatment works, -reduces costs... | 0:14:31 | 0:14:35 | |
-..and reduces prices for customers. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:39 | |
-It's a case of first come, -first served in this scheme. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:44 | |
-John Owen, manager of Gelli Aur, -has already registered. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:49 | |
-I've wanted to do it for a while, to -get rid of some of the chemicals... | 0:14:49 | 0:14:53 | |
-..we've had on licence. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:56 | |
-Things change so often. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:58 | |
-Things that are licenced -one minute... | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
-..aren't licenced the next -and you can't use them. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
-It's a way -of disposing of those chemicals. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:07 | |
-How difficult was it to dispose -of pesticides and herbicides? | 0:15:07 | 0:15:11 | |
-We would have had to pay for a -company to dispose of the chemicals. | 0:15:11 | 0:15:16 | |
-It's expensive. We've done it -in the past and it's expensive. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:21 | |
-The scheme is free and confidential. -How important is that? | 0:15:21 | 0:15:25 | |
-You might have illegal chemicals -that have been around for years. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:31 | |
-People would be worried -about letting others know... | 0:15:32 | 0:15:36 | |
-..they still had them. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:39 | |
-To that extent, it's a lot of help. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:41 | |
-People would feel -that there's no comeback. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:44 | |
-Would you advise other farmers -to join the scheme? | 0:15:45 | 0:15:48 | |
-Certainly - there are benefits -for the environment... | 0:15:48 | 0:15:52 | |
-..wildlife and security. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:55 | |
-These chemicals -can be very dangerous. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:58 | |
-If they're not needed on a farm, -they need to be disposed of safely. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:02 | |
-Natural Resources Wales are working -with Welsh Water on this scheme. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:08 | |
-How harmful are pesticides -and herbicides to our rivers? | 0:16:08 | 0:16:13 | |
-If they enter the water, -they can be very harmful. | 0:16:13 | 0:16:16 | |
-They not only kill the fish but -they kill insects on the riverbed... | 0:16:16 | 0:16:20 | |
-..which feed the fish. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
-In terms of this scheme, -what's the benefit for you? | 0:16:23 | 0:16:27 | |
-The greatest benefit -is reducing the risk. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:33 | |
-If farmers can dispose -of their chemicals... | 0:16:33 | 0:16:37 | |
-..some chemicals -they might not remember they had... | 0:16:37 | 0:16:41 | |
-..by reducing that risk, -they won't reach the river. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:45 | |
-Which areas are part of the scheme? | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
-There are six areas initially. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:50 | |
-They're water catchment areas -of Welsh Water. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:54 | |
-The Upper Wye, Teifi, Tywi, -Pendine, Alaw and Cefni on Anglesey. | 0:16:54 | 0:17:00 | |
-You must be within -those catchment areas... | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
-..before you can be included -in this scheme. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:07 | |
-Yes, at the moment. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:08 | |
-If this scheme is successful, -we can launch it nationwide. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:13 | |
-How beneficial can this be -to farmers? | 0:17:13 | 0:17:16 | |
-It has great benefits for farmers. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:19 | |
-With regulations as they are now... | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
-..if someone registers, -all the work is done for them. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:26 | |
-Someone from the disposal scheme -will contact them... | 0:17:26 | 0:17:30 | |
-..and they'll organise everything. | 0:17:30 | 0:17:33 | |
-We're asking farmers -to go through their storerooms... | 0:17:33 | 0:17:37 | |
-..check which chemicals -have past their use-by dates... | 0:17:37 | 0:17:41 | |
-..and dispose of them for free. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:43 | |
-If you want to be part -of the scheme... | 0:17:44 | 0:17:46 | |
-..to dispose -of your pesticides and herbicides... | 0:17:46 | 0:17:49 | |
-..here's what you have to do. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:51 | |
-This is the first time -we've done it. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:53 | |
-We hope the pilot is successful -and we can expand it across Wales. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:58 | |
-You can join the scheme -on our website... | 0:17:58 | 0:18:02 | |
-..or phone Welsh Water. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:04 | |
-The closing date is May 31. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:07 | |
-Finally, in just over a week, the -Spring Fair is held in Llanelwedd. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:14 | |
-It's the year's first show for the -Royal Welsh Agricultural Society. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:19 | |
-Carmarthenshire -is this year's feature county. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:23 | |
-Last week, they came up with -a novel way of raising funds. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:28 | |
-In Llanarthney, the local committee -organised a May Day Fair... | 0:18:28 | 0:18:33 | |
-..with various activities. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:35 | |
-The main attraction was the attempt -to break a World Record. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
-We had a fundraising fair last year. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:43 | |
-It was relatively successful. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
-We decided to organise -another one this year. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
-I was out in New Zealand -last year... | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
-..and I saw this happening -out there. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:55 | |
-I decided that Llanarthney -was the perfect place... | 0:18:55 | 0:18:58 | |
-..to host a welly throwing -World Record. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:01 | |
-The record was last broken -in England. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:04 | |
-The record is 431 throwing a welly -in a straight line at the same time. | 0:19:04 | 0:19:11 | |
-We have stewards here today -that aren't on our committee. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:16 | |
-I hope, by the end of the day, -Llanarthney... | 0:19:16 | 0:19:19 | |
-..will have its name -in the Guinness Book of Records. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:23 | |

-We've had so much fun -bringing everyone together. | 0:19:41 | 0:19:45 | |

-I'm not sure -what we'll do next year. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:52 | |
-We'll have to start planning -for 10 years' time. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:55 | |
-Yes, it's been a busy time -but it's been a lot of fun. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
-There was a lot -of organisational work. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:02 | |
-Help was at hand from Aled Jones... | 0:20:02 | 0:20:05 | |

-There are strict guidelines -for an event such as this. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:23 | |
-A team of volunteers -have worked harder than me. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:27 | |
-A lot of work follows the event -to ensure the forms are completed... | 0:20:27 | 0:20:32 | |

-..to get people -talking about the show... | 0:20:44 | 0:20:47 | |

-I hope we break the World Record -at the same time. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:53 | |
-It's a lot of fun -and it's an unique experience. | 0:20:53 | 0:20:56 | |

-The time was fast approaching. | 0:21:30 | 0:21:32 | |

-It's been a great day. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
