It may be a huge event on the racing calendar, but you might not know that the Superbike Championships, held at Cadwell Park, are a major boost to the Lincolnshire Wolds economy.

Seventy thousand racing fans are expected to descend on the Lincolnshire Wolds this weekend for the Superbikes Championship at Cadwell Park near Louth (pictured).

County councillor Colin Davie says it has a huge knock-on effect for the whole economy, not just the park itself:

Today is your last chance for you to share your opinion on the potential closure of Lincoln's walk-in centre.

A public consultation on the potential closure of the Monks Road site (pictured) began last week.

The Clinical Commissioning Group responsible for deciding what healthcare we have in Lincolnshire says that the walk-in centre could be duplicating services.

They suggest that seeing a GP, pharmacy or phoning 111 will deliver the same results.

The Memorial Flight has had to cancel a date at the Eastbourne Airshow today due to the problem, and they've got a packed programme coming up - including right here in Lincolnshire at next month's Scampton Airshow.

Andy Armstrong, the show's chief executive, says he's keeping his fingers crossed that the BBMF aircraft will be available for the show:

Mr Armstrong added that even without the BBMF aircraft, they'll still have a packed flying display.

A Lincolnshire MP says the decision to silence Big Ben for four years is over the top.

The world-famous bell will be dismantled on Monday to allow for repairs, and it will be silenced to protect workers' ears.

Gainsborough MP Sir Edward Leigh says it's a shame to have no "bongs" for several years:

Children as young as 11-years-old were involved in an attack on a bus in Cleethorpes last night, police say.

Windows on the bus were smashed but fortunately no-one was hurt during the attack, which saw children and young people throwing bricks at the vehicle.

A number of arrests have been made as a result of the incident, Humberside Police have confirmed.

It's the latest in a number of anti-social-behaviour incidents in the East Marsh area.

More on the grounding of many of the aircraft from the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight after the RAF found a problem on a Hurricane's Merlin engine.

The Lancaster, two Hurricanes and three of the Spitfires, based at RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire, all have these types of engines and are therefore all affected.

Dan O'Hagan, an aviation journalist, says he thinks it's purely a precaution:

It's fair to say once you find a barber or hairdresser you like, you tend to stick with them.

Sadly, people in Lincoln who do just that might have had a bit of bad news as one of the city's longest-serving barbers has decided to retire after 51 years in the business:

When Nuccio (pictured above left) started cutting hair at Gino's, on Monk's Road, in 1966 the Beatles and Frank Sinatra were in the charts and England were about to win the World Cup.

It's been a long journey since then and Nuccio says he's now looking forward to retiring:

Not to worry, though. The business is staying in the family, with Nuccio selling Gino's to his cousin.

Lincolnshire Police have seized a dog in Lincoln after reports that it was being mistreated.
