So...it comes down to this. I'm coming. I'll be in London Friday night through Sunday morning, the 17th to the 19th. I'm going to do be at the Arsenal - West Brom match, and after or before that, well, hell, I'm not going to know anybody, so...pints? Conversation? Football? Chess? In that order?
Leaving on Thursday and will have limited access to email, so a quick turnaround, if you're agreeable, would be excellent.

Would September 17, 2010 be 17 September, 2010?

Apart from that I agree, I store all my photos as yyyymmdd - xy.jpg
An added benefit is that printing companies generally put the filename on the back, so 50 years from now, people who pick up one of my prints and look at the back can see the exact date it was taken.
KCALPS!
