There aren't any major traffic issues in Hucknall this morning and the M1 is clear at Junction 27 with traffic flowing nicely but there is congestion southbound between Junctions 29 and 28.

In case you missed it:

East Side Methodist Church in Hucknall has received County Council funding to support the installation of a new kitchen.

Fun fact of the day:

Paint used to be stored in pig bladders. The bladder would be sealed with a string and then pricked to get the paint out. This option wasn't the best because it would often break open.
