For Cordal woman Kay Griffin, this past year has represented the longest continuous time that she s been away from home and her family ever since she first moved away over 23 years ago.
Kay, who now lives on the island of Jersey on the Channel Islands, is facing into her first Christmas away from home since 2010, and she admitted to The Kerryman that it will be a tough one to get through. It s been a bit of a strange year to say the least and so, yeah, it s annoying that I won t be able to get home, but there s nothing that anyone can do about that I guess, said Kay last Thursday.
