I cant remember which way round to write the date, can you help me correct the date below please ?

augusto diez y ocho dos mil y ocho

Should it be

When writing the date in Spanish, the day of the month comes first followed by the month and then the year. You put the word "de" between the day and the month and between the month and the year. For example, if I was taking notes in a class today (even though it's a Saturday smile ) and I wanted to put today's date in the heading, I would write:

21 de noviembre de 2009

which I would read aloud as:

el veintiuno de noviembre de dos mil nueve

Hope this helps!
