Racing returns to Syston Park
For the third year since its heyday in the 1930s, speed trails returned to Syston Park near Grantham during the August bank holiday weekend.
Spectators enjoyed the blazing sunshine more than some of the classic owners, with the heat proving a challenge to a few of the pre-1939 motorcycles and vehicles. The unique spirit of the interwar years was recreated with marshals in brown coats, an ice boy on a bicycle selling cooling lollies and the mess tent refreshments.

Food waste collections are coming to parts of Lincolnshire in early 2026 ♻️![]()
Here are the key things residents need to know:
• New household food waste collections will start rolling out in phases from January and February 2026
• If you’re in one of the first areas, you’ll receive food waste caddies and a guidance leaflet delivered to your home
• The leaflet explains how the service works, what can go in your caddies, and when collections will start
• All food items that are edible and inedible are accepted this includes items such as egg shells, meat bones, tea bags and so much more
• The service is part of the Government’s Simpler Recycling changes
• Not all areas will start at the same time – check your local district or borough council news channels for confirmed start dates
• Food waste should be placed in the kitchen caddy using the supplied liners, then transferred to the outdoor caddy for collection
• Collected food waste will be taken to an anaerobic digestion plant, where it will be turned into energy and fertiliser.
Look out for your caddy delivery and make sure to keep an eye on local council updates so you know when the service goes live in your area.
