Hi fellow sky blues fans.

I'm a big Cov fan and have supported them since I was 7 home and away.

I'm going to undertake a bit of a crazy social media experiment.

www.indiegogo.com/applevisit

Would appreciate if fellow Sky Blues fans could share the link around.

Yep it's a crazy idea, but will be a lot of fun visiting places in the UK I have not been before.

I will be writing a book about my experiences as a sequel to an Apple iBook I released called 'Bin There Done That'

Cheers

Rob

How do you make money from it? Adverts on the website?

Totally agree...If people google this guy's name they'll see it really is a case of a Cov lad made good.

Visiting a load of shops isn't really 'epic', it's all a bit Danny Wallace.

Your going to write a book about it?

Can I suggest "I went round all 30 stores in 2 weeks " end of book.

Sorry but can't you swim the Thames or something for charity? Don't mean to be disrespectful but really? Is this meant to be some sort of achievement visiting 30 Apple stores? Maybe Apple will love to sponsor you

I don't see anything wrong with this. He's using his nish, getting out there, having a bit of fun.
Go man, Go!

It's not a bad idea but done on a to small scale, all it's doing is visiting 30 shops and I think a lot of people on this site have visited more than 30 football grounds in the past few seasons. What would be better is visiting every apple shop in every country that has one, so you would get the worlds view of apple and maybe some places that don't have apple shops to get there view. Now that would be better in depth view guide to apple

Think of it about all the interesting characters I meet along the way.

Believe me when I say when you go on a road trip you will see some pretty random things and interesting people.

It's a thread about some guy visiting Apple stores and writing a book, referencing SISU is quite the reach.
