Might go to stoke to go to the ocuk warehouse tomorrow, would like to know if there is anything worth doing over than hunting for the ocuk warehouse.

Going by train so it would be nice to have an idea of the size of the following items:
OcUK GeForce 8400 GS 256MB DDR2 HDTV/DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail Intel Core 2 Duo E2160 "LGA775 Conroe" 1.80GHz (800FSB)
OcUK Huntkey 500W PSU OcUK Huntkey 500W PSU
OcUK ATI Radeon HD 3850 Pro 256MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express)
Asus P5N-E SLi nForce 650 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
OCZ 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-6400C4 Dual Channel Platinum Revision 2 XTC Series
Arctic Cooling Arctic Fan 8025PWM 80mm Fan
Acousti Ultra-Soft Arrowhead Fan Mounts - 8 Pack Acousti Ultra-Soft
 
It's not much of a warehouse, but if you can get into hanley, theres a cinema, shopping centre, bowling alley. Literally around the corner from OCUK theres a go-cart place.
 
You can really freak my best mate out if you want. When you get off the train, go to the cafe (he's probably working in the one on the actual platform rather than the big interior one) and say "Hey Paul, Jon says ow at and he'll be down later after work for a free hot chocolate". :p
 
A good old fight between fred perry clothed teenagers proves popular on the club road if you are there in the evening:p (no idea on the road name but its got flares, walkabout, aruba etc on there)
 
you can go to Borne sports, I always quite like a browse there, they're especially good at cricket stuff if that's your thing.
 
Anything to do in stoke?


Find a place to park (this will easily kill four hours)
Gaze in wonder at the sheer ugliness of the place
Calculate the number of people who've been beaten to within an inch of their lives by football hooligans at Britannia Stadium
Whimsically entertain the notion that the Stoke skyline is actually quite attractive
Realise that this is a sign you've been in Stoke too long already (ie. more that 15 minutes)
Grab car keys and run before it's too late

At least, that was my experience.

:)

Stoke isn't that bad!

Thinking about it, it actually is :O
 
Don't think I've ever been to or seen Stoke. I imagine from what's being said here that it's a northern Slough. Am I right or misguided and southern? :p

ps TTIUWP :D
