I just popped into my local shop, ten minutes before it shut, to buy some milk for tomorrow's breakfast. Some of the plastic milk bottles were stamped with a best-before date of ‘21 OCT’, and some with ‘23 OCT’. So far, so unremarkable; but to the right of those groups were some bottles stamped ‘22A OCT’. Huh?

Or perhaps some sort of complicated daylight saving thing?

Another question arises: do most (well, half) pints of milk have this? Or is it rare? Who can remember?
