Every Friday morning Tom and Eithne used to wait patiently for Patrick and Niamh to arrive from Donegal with their father Mark, and the children spent the day âhelpingâ with the cows and whatever jobs were to be done on the farm.

âWe have been really lonely on Fridays,â said Tom, who enjoyed walking through the fields with his grandchildren and bringing them to the lake to see the swans. But in recent months, instead of watching childrenâs favourites Peppa Pig or Shaun the Sheep, Patrick has been able to see his grandfatherâs newborn calves on television.
