Ipswich Gets A New Porn Shop

As I walked to Portman Road, I saw a store, I’d not seen before.

Ipswich Gets A New Porn Shop

I’ve no idea how good it is, but it certainly looks the place to get some good engineering pornography.

Ipswich used to have a wonderful shop in Martin and Newby, which was opposite my office in Fore Street, in the early days of Artemis. One memory is the van from Royal Volker Stevin arriving each morning during the construction of the Orwell Bridge. Apparently Martin and Newby made a fortune out of that job, as so many expensive tools were dropped into the river.  One suggestion was that they use wooden spirit levels, so that they floated, but they found the current in the river took them out to sea.
