Look at the 'A' cell values:
360: 30/6/2009
361: '27/5/2009
362: '29/5/2009
363: 01/06/2009

In Excel:
360: Format is 'Date' '*3/14/1001'
361: Format is 'Custom' 'd-mmm'
362: Format is 'Custom' 'd-mmm'
363: Format is 'Date' '*3/14/1001'

The problem is in Excel. Fix your inconsistent cell formats in Excel.
OOo is interpreting the data correctly... GIGO.
