Precocious

Sir: It was very kind of that nice Mr Keating to write about me last week (Sport, 6 June). But I should just say that my birthday is the day after Frank Woolley's and two days before George Headley's, and not as he said. Sorry to mention it, because it was such a lovely article, but my dad said these details were important.
