When using digits for my date of birth I will write 01/07/72. If asked it (for official purposes) I'll say first of the seventh seventy two.
If I was writing the date at the top of a letter, today I'd write 10 July 2010. Some people would still write 10th July 2010, but that seems to be on the wane. I have to reverse Cellar dates in my head.
Mobile phones give the option to change the format of dates. Oddly enough, the digital clock in this room has the option to switch to 24 hour format, but the date appears in American - it's confused me more than once. It shows 7/10 Sat. Which for us would be October!
