Letter: In Brief

Sir: In your new year quiz on the euro ("How much of a European are you?" 2 January) two of the questions concerned myself. Number 10 related me quite correctly to my brother Rowan - he specialises in comedy and I in tragedy (British and European politics).

However question number nine relating to the book Treason at Maastricht, which I wrote with Norris McWhirter, erroneously and regrettably named as my co-author Norris's twin brother, Ross McWhirter - who was murdered by the IRA some 20 years ago.
