I have my system correctly set to reflect my country, it's time zone,

However, Ubuntu stubbornly refuses to correctly show the date stamp in
the top panel: it shows, for example, "Sat Jul 3, 16:07:30" and not what
it should be showing which is "Sat 3 Jul.....".

Is there a hidden setting somewhere which I can fiddle for Ubuntu to
adhere to my wishes? Anyone, please?

(The date stamp is shown correctly everywhere else, TB, Nautilus,
whatever- all except the top panel.)

Google is your friend.

Google is NOT my friend, nor anyone else's.

Have you tried the following?

Yep, and it does not solve my problem - I still get the American way of
showing the time stamp - month/day/year - and not what I have Ubuntu
configured to show: day/month/year.

Even Windows could do this for me - but not Ubuntu/Gnome :'( :'( .
