Are you based in Liverpool and itching to get your mitts on some of that Apple retail goodness enjoyed by so many other cities in the UK? Jealous of the recent announcement of Leicester’s first retail store? Don’t worry! Be happy. For Apple will, this very weekend, make all your shopping-in-an-Apple-store-related dreams come true.

If you’re heading over for the launch (complete with much balloons and goody-bag-related joy, no doubt) why not drop us a line with some pics or something.

A recent Retail Week article announces the top 100 retail stores in the world (although naturally with something of a UK bias), and Apple has two entries in the listing compiled by other leading retailers.

Apple’s Regent Street store in London is named alongside the iconic glass cube on New York’s 5th Avenue. The Regent Street store is pretty darned impressive when you visit, spread across two capacious floors and overflowing with Apple folk just trying to help. Worth it if you’re in the area and have 10 minutes to kill.
