 Are the pattern definitions for parsing separate from those for 
 formatting then? Because having parsed in 'neutral' format (yyyy-mm-
 dd), ToShortDateString formats the date fine in en-GB. It's just 
 when Parse is used on the results (dd-mm-yyyy) in en-GB there's a 
 problem ... if that helps clarify at all ...

+In the implementation, yes. Those pattern strings returned by such as
+ShortDatePattern should be included in the pattern list that
+GetAllDateTimePatterns() returns. Anyways en-GB DateTimeFormatInfo
+currently does not return dd/MM/yyyy for that method above, so that's
+the problem (it seems to have very different pattern list).
