The Village Pond

In the good old days every village had its village pond, somewhere for the ducks to forage, the horses to be washed and the kids to swim. These days most village ponds have been filled in and built over, so it's nice to see that Gwaenysgor still has its pond - complete with ducks - though when we went to film it the ducks were sliding rather than swimming.
