Penicuik Hunter 2011 - Andrew Murray

I was born on 5th August 1961 and have lived in Penicuik all my life. I am a widower with 3 children, Christopher, Natalie and Nicole. I attended Cuiken Primary School then Penicuik High School.

On leaving school I went to work at Edinburgh Crystal Factory as an apprentice glass maker where I worked until its closure in 2005 when I then went to work for Lothian Buses in the cash office then onto being a driver.

In my spare time I enjoy keep fit, hill walking, bowling and socialising. I recently completed a fund-raising charity walk in the Sahara Desert with a team of friends from Penicuik.

As Penicuik Hunter I look forward to representing the people of Penicuik at many local and not so local towns whilst enjoying their festivities, traditions and cultures.
