From Black to White

7 Market Place was until recently Black Inc. It was a shop selling clothes for young Goths. In Abingdon there are groups of young people like townies (who dress fairly smart with sportswear and caps), and Goths (who dress in black and usually have hair dyed to match). Black Inc was a shop for Goths, run by Jan (pronounced Yan), who had a family of young Goths to support him.

However the Abingdon Goths did not have enough money to keep the shop Black, and now as is the way of such things, it has all been repainted white.

On Monday it will open as Scuffs - a shoe shop for kids.
