Not sure how others would tackle this, but I would use something like

$readabledate = date("dS F Y @ H:i:s",
                strtotime(substr($timestamp,0,4)."-"
                         .substr($timestamp,4,2)."-"
                                 .substr($timestamp,6,2)." "
                                 .substr($timestamp,8,2).":"
                                 .substr($timestamp,10,2).":"
                         .substr($timestamp,12,2)));

Not sure this is bug free, but it should change your timestamp (yes it is a
database timestamp) into the readable format you described.  It's yours to
debug.
