Andrew Gater is fifty-nine and lives in Ashton-under-Lyne
with his wife, Mandy. Between them, they have three grownup
sons and three grandchildren. They are keen walkers and
gardeners (something that Covid facilitated in ever larger
amounts). Andrew was born in New Zealand in 1965 and
adopted by his English parents, Peter and Evelyn, who had
emigrated in 1963. Andrew was brought up in Batley,
Yorkshire, and has worked in the food industry for forty
years. Andrew has always written poetry but not as frequently
as he did in Covid times, when the time was very much
available.
