Hi Oleg, Thanks so much! Your examples (specifically the last one) do what I need. I had done a very ugly hack in my view, which involved slicing the dates, switching the slices around and converting to datetime objects again - not clean at all.
I have taken that out and just went with your solution. Again, many thanks!
