Hello, Today's edition of the Nottinghamian brings news of the second day of strike action for nurses in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire. We hear from nurses on the picket line about how they feel the action is going.

Many strikers could be seen at the roadside as early as 7am, with many more joining throughout the day. Regional organiser for Royal College of Nursing, Sarah Leigh McMahon, said: “This strike has been a long time coming. If you had asked our members four years ago we probably would not have got the mandate for strike action, but a lot has happened in the last four years.

Weather and trivia Weather: Early rain clearing eastern parts, then another dry and bright day on Wednesday with sunny spells. Breezy throughout the day but winds easing overnight. Maximum temperature 8 °C.Trivia question: Since 1845, what has been illegal to rent out in Nottingham?Notts nostalgia For many people, a trip to the theatre is a festive tradition.

In 1969 the city council bought the theatre and began restoring, since it had earned a reputation as one of the worst theatres for backstage conditions in the country. At a cost of £4 million in the day, the theatre reopened on 6 June 1978 by Princess Anne who was “impressed and delighted” and said “…what an improvement on the old place. All you had there was the smell of gas.”

There will be no food served, just drinks. But once again, it drew criticism. One person commented: "Give your staff the day off. Let them be with family and friends. Money shouldn't matter." Tom Holodynsky, the operations manager at pub owner, the Great Northern Group, said: "We have had one or two negative comments again asking 'why?' and 'put your staff first' but we stand by our comments last year.

Mr Regan announced the closure on Facebook and Instagram, saying: "Well, that was fun! Hope you all enjoyed it. Opportunity for someone to bring something new and adventurous to Bingham and do a better job than I did!" He added that he didn't give the business "the energy it needed and didn't follow my own advice... stick to the plan and focus, focus, focus."
