*smile*...I will sure admit that when singing about dates, it sounds better that way. Just not totally convinced about everyday usage.

Some Brits seem particularly anxious to convince us that we are doing it 'wrong', not just differently. Since all those about me do the month first, I probably should stick with it for now.(As I say, I could adjust to any decision...and it WOULD be convenient if there were an international standard. I wonder what it would take?)
