ah sorry thats what comes from doing this of the top of my nogin.

The issue is the spaces after the +

the following will work

date +'%d %b %C%y'

EDIT i missed the space between date and + fixed

@HumanPenguin: You need to add '-' after the '%' to avoid it getting padded with leading zeroes. I.e. the difference between

09 March 2010 and
9 March 2010 is the '-' in %-d

Also, the string must be quoted or it won't be passed to 'date' correctly.
