we had them in the. milking said to him. through a cow retrospect. i think. i've seen a milk cow. goats. hired me horses are a little bit too capricious for that call as they have to go to jail cells for this technique. in the winter the farmer only produces around a hundred liters of milk a day because there's less straw. he says unless the monster but in some of the yield fifty percent. of the animals a corporation which. suggests little old. lovely and specific job to do because if the milk isn't flowing it's a little one gets to suck
9:37 am
a little bits are not normally will make the milk come as an instinctive response once the milk has been collected it's off to be processed i was tempted to try something but like say explain that it's actually a powerful laxative and became rather less keen. fortunately the fermentation process which will bottom out. we should pull right through you. take a look at that. big slab of lovely warm. and then placed him in the head. the fresh milk is mixed with some less already been processed and off to sixty minutes it's ready for packaging. the syrup rice. the day finishing touch hopefully.
9:38 am
one before a very fresh coolness ready for a sanitarium we're sick and need. unfortunately it was a case of warm down mice you know want to go. price. i've been feeling this milk something up all off noon so i think it's time to try one out. healthy. cool it would be best. but if you are looking for a real drink the moldova and council surrounds has plenty of the people should. be slow but it is the life and this place as well as me.
9:39 am

9:41 am
a lot to me and not only to me for my brother. do a lot about you know and that's why you're here. and i guess he's. been based in surrounds for almost four years but he admits that it's taken time to adapt to russian culture but with another two years before he's qualified john's focus is firmly on his study it's yeah see since i want to be a doctor the time i came had the opportunity to give us everything we got. after finishing and i think help see him do something really really well to make a difference in the individual get a chance to prove himself and to do something better a living sometimes i get to meet really amazing people much troubles and john was clearly inspired by his time in surrounds it's still a city that not many foreigners have seen but in a few years' time well that's going to change. how we will be
9:42 am
seen the more dave you have some pretty amazing sports facilities and the stadium is no exception but in twenty eighteen the world cup is coming to russia and a capacity of seventy thousand. to stay going to cut. building to surround six new stadium is already underway and it's way to cost around one hundred eighty million dollars. but with so much at stake the surrounds sky thought it was important to get a feel for the playing conditions. oh so we may want to think the senate is where it is now it's just play. time really in the russian premier league. for boys who write. if they pull off this really could put saran on the map but it's not going to
9:43 am
strangers to world class sports facilities here. for. we'll. bring you the latest in science and technology from around. the future coverage disarming saddam hussein. of iraqi citizens. this event brings further assurance that the torture chambers and the secret police are gone forever. is again over embassy in kabul. too much occupied afghanistan. now occupy sales at guantanamo bay.
9:44 am
it is appropriate today in court and. if he did even. if a slap some a slap if you can shoot him enough so that it shocks especially if it gets slapped but you don't actually break any bones could. take place that we use in kuantan for the senior leadership of. the libyan nothing to. believe. it might not be long before russia's top footballers will be playing in ceramics and some of the country's best cyclists are already here now looking at this weather you're probably thinking who exactly the best conditions in the world do some exploiting well
9:45 am
a local government agreeing with you so they decided to do something wrote the article about. played so well. but the planets only covered its full size direct struck. the center in the open in the early two thousand and ten but it's already home to russia's following this reuters. we weighed a good deal of progress both and europe and russia a european champion is training here at college who had worked within the olympic champion is here as well is preparing all sportsman for the two thousand and twelve games. and the sports also become incredibly popular with the local children more than two hundred fifty young riders train here regularly and the man in charge of them all is coach yuri. before they can become champions they need to learn
9:46 am
a few basic skills. how to go to be a mixing as a kid but that was now a very long time ago. they say you never forget riding a bike but if i was going to take on this track i have one or two technical issues to sort out. all the tighter. careful on the turn. don't trouble too high. up. here in the second hump at least. that is it a bit more. amazingly
9:47 am
. ok i think i'm probably about twenty. more of a culture buff than a fitness fanatic there's still plenty to see in mordovia. i began my journey with a visit to one of its oldest and most important religious sentence. this is the same john the evangelist smaller stream which houses churches dating back to the beginning of the eighteenth century but it also doubles as a spiritual and physical rehabilitation center. of the ruffian his early in his mid twenty's. yes but he's already lived there for several years. his day begins with early morning prayers but his most important tosk is to supervise the lay brothers who come to live and work in the monastery. you two gentlemen go
9:48 am
to the hotels backyards your help is needed there grab the garbage police as for you go and bring some water as. many of the helpers here are planning to take monastic vows but others might say ok i'm looking for a different kind of redemption. i joined this monastery because i was an alcoholic and a drug addict people get subsidies for medical assistance people suffering from all kinds of addictions stay here for long periods of time. they come here just to live and work in this holy place they get treatment for free the monasteries atmosphere and the way of life here help them recover. but it's no easier on it and return for their room and board and help us work ten hour days and in the winter weather that means a lot of snow shoveling so this is what daily life is like again the other is here
9:49 am
the faces tend to change on a fairly regular basis the one thing stays the same none of them are here for material gain hoping for more spiritual rewards. a few personal demons as well. plays a vital part everyone is expected to attend early morning and evening services a meal times are each accompanied with bible readings. based. begin here. with my tasks finally complete i headed back to surround for some more sightseeing and to try and find the city's most visited
9:50 am
gravesite. this is the man i come to see all of those years favorite sons and certainly its most famous artist because. of the russian road and his work is still on display in the local museum. there is here was born and raised and more jovial for study in moscow and moving to italy and france to refine his technique. in the one nine hundred twenty s. the soviet government sent him abroad as an ambassador of the soviet aunts and he spent almost twenty five years living and working in argentina. and it was here he created his signature hardwood sculptures to tell moses is one of his most famous works some see it as a tribute to michelangelo sculpture of the horn of moses where others think it takes its inspiration from the more pagan mythological tales perhaps of his youth and more via they couldn't decide about it then and they still talk about it now.
9:51 am
as he returned to russia in one nine hundred fifty and continued to work up until his death but there's still some debate over what actually killed him. now i've heard of going for your aunt before but never actually telling by it but the legend has it that in one nine hundred fifty nine trips fell. on lennon's nose here and breathed his last claiming one victim from the on the gray. and whether you believe it or not it certainly hasn't hurt the artist's legacy. for more than thirty years local children have learned to make handicrafts here carry on a tradition that dates back centuries. nowadays there are around twenty five children taking classes here and he says one of the most popular toy is apparently all of the easiest to make.
9:52 am
the painstaking procedure. is preparation. of course believe it or not this is going to actually end up looking like. he said that look very abstract. fortunately alexander is a patient teacher and several of his students are going to become master craftsman to do what children do here develops their taste for work because the toys reflect real activities some of the school's graduates are well known designers as a matter of fact this school serves as the basis of a development of a trade in objects of art many of their graduates pursue it as a main source of income. my coming
9:53 am
was never going to end up in the shops but with a little tweaking from alexander i was pretty happy with my current. live. yeah. a super super quick whistling session some very. spry. it was starting to get late and we were still quite a long way from surround but fortunately alexander was able to point me in the direction of a rather special hotel. so the morning seems to be pretty amazing all to spot i've heard that they're famous for their hospitality as well and they're supposed to be a place around here where i can get a taste of that hopefully a bed for the right here. well i wasn't expecting it to be quite so busy.
