RE your recent letter about unusual birth dates (HAS, May 5). My brother was born 13/07/41 and my elder son was born 13/01/63, making my son 21 years and six months to the day younger than my brother.
My sister was born 04/03/47 and my younger son was born 04/09/68, making my son 21 years and six months to the day younger than my sister.
Just for good measure, my younger grandson was born 02/02/02.
