Old photos thread 📷 20:54 - Feb 6 with 1579 viewsSwansea_Blue

Kicking this off after the Terry Butcher fishing thread. It’s a repeat to get the thread started. I thought it might be nice to have a place for people to post photos of memories that may be of interest to the forum. They could be ITFC-related (of course) or of the town and the wider area, or from farther afield if you think it’s of interest. Your photos or others you’ve found are all welcome.

A boring one to start - the River Gipping at Riverside Road car park. 85/86

Poll: Do you think Pert is key to all of this?

This is a fascinating site which goes way beyond lettering and has maps, photos, history etc.

It is well worth dipping into, even though some of the headings sound rather dull. For example, it was through this site that I discovered Ipswich has an old Jewish cemetery.

I can just about make out 'Flash Gordon,' which I remember going to see there, so it makes that picture 1980 (ish).

Hurting my eyes to make out any others!

No. You're thinking of the old Odeon where Top Rank bingo went.

The ABC was in the Buttermarket. You can just about see the edge of the Ancient Bookhouse in the foreground.

Oh well done… I can see that now …. BUT… (and I’m spending far too much time on this) is it in fact “FLESH Gordon” the 1973 sex comedy ? I read the cinema had a refurb in 1973 too which might be the reason for the photo.

I meant to put these on here ages ago, but my Mum donated a lot of photos of Ipswich taken by my Great Grandfather to the Ipswich Society. He was headmaster of both Tower Ramparts and St Margaret Primary at diffenent times:

I often find myself scanning through that ipswich society Flickr account, so had seen these, though obviously not linked them to a twtd legend.

I was born underwater, I dried out in the sun. I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.
