Knock, knock... birthday treat for Kitty as Enda calls

KITTY MURPHY may have been expecting the postman yesterday when a knock came on the door as her 86th birthday celebrations got under way.

Instead, the Tipperary woman got a bit of a shock as there to greet her was none other than Taoiseach Enda Kenny, who was making a whirlwind call to offer her birthday wishes.

Kitty’s family links with Fine Gael go back generations and are still maintained today.
