Hi Alistair,

which version of Squeak are you using?  The latest version I get
 {true . false . 2018-10-17T00:00:00-07:00 . 1:00:00:00 .
2018-10-17T00:00:00+00:00 . 1:00:00:00}
from the results of your script.  Maybe you are using Pharo?  Back in Feb
2016 the default offset for timespans (and hence the default offset for
Date) was set to nil - meaning for the display the Date today should show
+0:00 (which is not nil, obviously, but prints better).

-Chris
