Dates

#

Started by Citizen Erased

Is there any reason why this site, one which ends with .uk insists on showing dates as month then date rather than the other way? I know its an Americanism, don’t know if it’s also a Europeanism & am reasonably sure its not an irishism…

Erm, I’ve not really thought about it and I have no technical explanation for you.

But as a personal preference if I’m writing a date as a number I would do 29/01/2006 but if am writing the month as a word, I would write January 29th 2006, as opposed to 29th January 2006 - so it kinda makes sense to me. :s

Reneeeeee! (said in the ‘Rickaaaaiiii’ style ;))

And the photo is being posted here when..?

I would pose the question about which bit of hair, but for fear of offending you I shall be restrained & just suggest that that would probably look pretty good on you.

The reason the dates are formatted the way they are is strictly based on personal preference of both Sarah and me - no technical or political reason.

So, if you don’t like it you have to take it up with us. Best of luck with that ;-)

OK - touch gloves, no hitting below the belt, I want a nice, clean fight… that is unless you fancy kicking, bitting, spitting and pulling each others hair - the crowd love a ruck!
