Meet Jim and Doireann Mulhall as we chat amongst the cows on their robotic milking farm which is nestled right on the edge of the beautiful medieval city of Kilkenny. The Mulhalls have an infectious passion for their pedigree Holstein herd. Hear about their switch to a robotic system, why they love what they do and why you should as Jim says, ''play the hand that you're dealt''. We also hear how milk gets from their cows to your bowl of cereal, just what makes the perfect cow and why Kilkenny is in fact a city rather than a town!

If you enjoy please share.
