Your post is all over the place.
You do not count the departure and arrival days so it would be 8.
The United Kingdom (UK) includes England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are considered as part of the UK for nationality purposes, but they have their own immigration laws and policies. The only time you could use Gibraltar is if you were married or civil p to a British Citizen who was on crown service in Gibraltar. Otherwise it's not classed as the UK.
The time spent on a visit visa will count towards the residency requirement providing the stay was legal and you were in the UK (but for allowed absences). Give a timeline of your immigration status and absences.
