Cwmderi Diary 2014: 27 October 2014

Garry looks at his CCTV footage

Garry is back from China; as he reviews the CCTV footage from the garage,

He sees Gethin's activities

he sees Gethin kicking the van door and unloading the boxes. He tells Dani he has to go to the garage, but she objects. Then he also insists that they go to the Deri, to support Britt and Siôn on opening day, when Dani simply wants some time alone with him, after his trip.

Britt is all prepared for the opening

At the Deri, Britt has made a large number of rolls, involving cheese and ham, and Siôn, as well as making a children’s book corner,

Sioned is upset that her father's photo has been taken down

has taken down the photos of Denzil and Reg, which angers Sioned when she comes downstairs. Ed offers his advice, which is declined, and asks when the opening will be, as, “Gwynfor will be dying of thirst!” Siôn goes to open the door, but is disappointed when no-one comes in.

Meic compiles a list of things to do

Meic is writing a list of things he wants to do before . . . “You know!” Working again behind the bar of the Deri is not now likely to happen, but he wants to make a film of Cwmderi and learn to fly, also to work in the café again.

Iolo is convinced that Garry is plotting his revenge

Iolo is worried about Garry, but Gethin says, “He’s still in bed, leaving me to do all the work!” “Or plotting his revenge,” warns Iolo.

Dani orders them to go to the Deri

Then Dani rushes in, saying they have to go to the Deri on opening day, and shows off the bag Garry has given her, making Iolo more uneasy

Anita the movie mogul

Anita is operating the video camera out in the street;

Meic rebuffs Siôn's invitation

Debbie is unimpressed, and when Siôn comes along and invites them into the Deri, Meic says they have more important things to do.

Back inside, Siôn irritates Britt by maintaining that they should not sell crisps, as they are “unhealthy”.

Garry is in a hurry to find Ed . . .

Then Garry arrives, looking for Ed, and tells Britt that the moment his back is turned, things start happening. Once upstairs he demands, “I want my money back, now, please! Have you got it?”

. . . and soon has his £5,000 back

Ed meekly takes the money from a drawer and hands it over, whereupon Garry immediately leaves.

Sioned is determined to sell more clothes

Sioned is determined to sell more of her clothes, despite Ed telling her she will have nothing to wear.

Meic and Anita go into the café, and Gwen asks what she can get for them.

"I can't work with you!" says Debbie

Meic replies, “Move out of the way to make room for me behind the counter!” but this angers Debbie, who says she cannot work with him. “Well, I’m here to stay!” he insists, so Debbie takes off her apron and storms out.

Garry tells Gethin to get back to work

When Garry, Dani, Gethin and Iolo arrive at the Deri, Garry questions Gethin about the van he picked up on Friday, then tells him to get back to the garage, as he has work to do.

"What's she doing, serving behind the counter?"

When Debbie returns to the café, she finds Anita helping Meic behind the counter and complains vociferously.

Siôn has a phone call from a translation customer, and Britt tells him he will have no time for that now, but he is optimistic that the Deri will soon be getting back on its feet.

Britt tells Siôn that people are staying away deliberately

Britt is less confident; “People know we’re open – and they’re staying away!” Siôn responds, “How could they be so childish?”

Garry looks a bit threatening with that in his hand

Working at the garage, Gethin asks questions about why Garry’s friend could not collect his van from the port himself, and whether Garry will be returning to Germany. “You’re lucky to have Dani, who’s cool about you going away,” Gethin reminds him.

In the café, Meic asks Ed how Siôn is doing with the Deri; Ed replies, “It has a reading corner, fancy beers from Brittany – and no customers!” Sioned adds, “And he’s taken Dad’s photo down!”

Britt is surprised by the posh bag

Britt gets home, and Iolo brings the children back from Elinor’s. Garry arrives and gives Britt a posh black bag; he refers to Siôn as “Moneybags White,” and that there must be a lot of money in translating. He suggests that Siôn must have a sideline, adding, “Isn’t that right, Iolo?”

Garry mentions "sideline" and Iolo gets nervous

Iolo is even more uncomfortable.

Siôn says that he was expecting more people in the Deri, after all the sacrifices he has made for it.

"Gethin is now almost family"

After Iolo has gone, Britt tells Garry she noticed his attitude towards Gethin earlier, and reminds him that Gethin is Dani’s brother, and therefore “family.”
