00:00 Hi, I'm Mark from the Vinyl Countdown. You can find us at their Whitchurch Antiques Emporium,
00:06 which is in Green End, Whitchurch, Shropshire.
00:09 I've spent all my life in corporate sales and decided last year to take a slightly different path
00:19 and open up a vinyl shop, purely and simply because I was into it.
00:22 I just expected to see men my age coming in buying AC/DC and stuff like that,
00:30 but I've been absolutely amazed at the various different ages and types of people that I'm getting in.
00:37 I'm selling everything from classical through to rap, to dance, to 60s pop.
00:43 A range of ages, youngest customers, probably 14, 15.
00:48 Youngsters are buying everything from Fleetwood Mac and Elvis, as well as the modern day stuff as well.
00:56 It's been massively encouraging from day one and five months in,
01:01 thoroughly enjoying life here and hopefully can continue to do so.
