    Alex you are an absolute videography genius. I can honestly say you make masterpieces. Each episode I love to learn and indulge in the outdoors with you. This is real life. This isn’t consumerism and who can make the most billions of pounds to buy another item they don’t need. This is what true REAL life is and how it should be enjoyed. Superb! And I wish you all the best in your ventures

    Aww, man. I moved away from Caerfyrddin a few years ago, up to Yorkshire to be closer to my family after my nieces were born. Seeing those landscape shots and hearing Gruff's accent just made me powerfully homesick.

    Hi Alex. I enjoy your videos. Compliments on your gumption!
    Super comes from Latin and means "above."
    In English, we combine it with words like ~lative ( lative is also from Latin and means to praise).
    So superlative = above praise.
    Therefore, super probably became used for the honey top boxes.
    As hive farms had a strong association with monasteries and covenants where Latin was expected, that may be the influence as well in the honey boxes being called supers.

    The adjective super is an abbreviated use of the prefix super-, which comes from the Latin super-, meaning “above,” “over,” or “beyond.”

    Loved this video. Even more listening to the Welsh accent...Twelve years ago, middul, handred, Wales is very rooral,bucket, hunnney, fahm,fluvverrs sounds so much better than flowers,wheel bahrrow ,difffrunt, one box at a tayum...the stress on the 'r'
    If this gentleman recited poetry it would be a sheer delight to listen to.
    Like listening to the late , Sir Richard Burton. The Welsh seem to endow a richness to the English language when they enunciate it their way.
    Thank you.

    Water biscuits, called water biscuits because they're just made from flour and water. And apparently the cracking sound they make has something to do with it. Maybe cracking of waves against the hull of a ship as they were used as food for long voyages.

      Surprisingly the auto captions didn't have too much of an issue with it though. At least not when talking about cut comb honey. I'd say mistaking comb for coal isn't too bad with his accent. I had to turn it on and rewatch that part since I couldn't understand him lol

  • @aimeelee76

    As someone from the States who has never been to Wales (England and Ireland: yes, Wales and Scotland: not yet, hopefully someday!), this guy's accent is just so amazing and not one that I think I've ever heard before! I find regional accents like this to be fascinating and I'm familiar with many from the British Isles (Quick aside: isn't it just so cool that such a small area of land has such an amazing variety of accents? Some of them are dying out and that makes me sad. Same with here in the States...lots of regional accents are dying or lessening considerably.) , but this is a new one for me. Is this what a native Welsh speaker sounds like? The way he (Griff?) says 'rural' is honestly awesome. His cadence is sending me, too. I could listen to him all day!

    The origin of the word super comes because it’s short for superior. In other words, honey boxes designated for honey, as opposed to brewed seat, superior or super for short above the brood boxes

    When backpacking I always travelled with some. Flexi container and keep the nozzle clean otherwise you'll have a backpack full of ants.
