title: Convert custom date format to user friendly
body: <p>I currently have the following code in PHP which echo's a date from a mySQL database</p>
  
  <pre><code>//for an example
  $card_info[0]['Player_DOB'] = "24/6/1987";
  
  &lt;td&gt;&lt;?=$card_info[0]['Player_DOB'];?&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How could I parse this with 1 simple line to display a user friendly date? I know I could do something like <code>explode($card_info[0]['Player_DOB'], "/")</code> blah blah blah but that's the long process.</p>
  
  <p>So basically is their anyway to do this with just 1 line of code to display something like this</p>
  
  <pre><code>24th of June, 1987
  </code></pre>
