Thunderbird uses your computer system clock. Go into control panel, time and date settings and look at the date format under Language and Region.

TB uses the short date format as set in your OS control panel, e.g. in Windows, Region and Language. There is also an add-on:

Thank you, just looked at the clock and realised it was showing the incorrect country.. Thank you for your help.
