That's all from me for today, I'll be back at 07:00 on Tuesday with all the latest news, views, sport, weather and travel from across York and North Yorkshire.
Before I go, though, here's a look back at five things we didn't know earlier today which we do now:
Who's the best cook, who has the most grooming products and who's the best gamer between Ripon Olympians Jack Laugher and Chris Mears? The answers may surprise
Concussion, bites and being run over by a car are just some of the incidents that have taken place, but it's feared some attacks are going unreported.
Ray Gray, from Unison, the union which represents many ambulance and NHS staff in North Yorkshire, says staff need to be encouraged to report every incident.

In Scarborough, local resident Jade Binnie is at her shellfish stall waiting for the customers.
Business has been slower than normal today, she tells me - and it's all because of the nice weather.
This being Yorkshire, today's the first bit of decent sunshine we've seen for a while.

Joanita Musisi
Reporter, BBC Radio York
It's been an anxious 48 hours for the organisers of the Thornton le Dale show who have kept an eye on the weather forecast, as 15,000 visitors are expected to attend today.
However, as you can see, so far the rain's held off and the sun is shining.

This is the 97th Thornton le Dale show and organisers are already planning for their centenary in 2019.
I snuck in before the gates opened at 09:00 and managed to lure a couple of beautiful owls from the falconry display to perch for a photo.
The little owl on the left is in fact a Little Owl called Percy and Lizzie, the bigger owl, is from Africa and is a Verreaux's Eagle Owl.

Scarborough 'better than Dubai'
Grace Parnell
BBC Local Live, Scarborough
I'm in Scarborough and I've Just met a lovely lady called Shahla - on holiday from Dubai!
She says it's "amazing" here and the weather is a "relief" from Dubai because you can breathe.
BBCCopyright: BBC
The nature and views are another draw, she tells me: "It's so green with lovely views. Dubai has sandy beaches, yes, but also tower blocks. We don't have this kind of nature."
And she's the third person to tell me that she likes it here because of the buildings and architecture.
The gardens, described by Queen Mary as "Heaven on Earth", are also making a starring role as Wild Cat Island in the BBC's new feature-length film adaptation of Swallows and Amazons which will be released next month.
Have your say on changes to York's 15th century Guildhall
Trevor Gibbons
BBC News, Yorkshire
People are being asked for their views on the latest designs for a £12m redevelopment of York's Guildhall which have gone on show today.
The council moved its offices out of the complex in 2013, although full council meetings are still held there.
City of York CouncilCopyright: City of York Council
The building alongside the River Ouse was originally built in the 15th century, but had to be extensively rebuilt after it was destroyed by fire in an air raid on the city in 1942.
It's now set to become a "state-of-the-art venue for business," which will include offices, a cafe and a restaurant.
The Grade I and Grade II* listed building, could suffer "permanent and irrevocable" damage if left unchecked, according to a council report.
City of York CouncilCopyright: City of York Council
The council will need to borrow £10m for the scheme, but has said it could generate 120 new jobs.
At today's event, residents can also meet the project manager who will be on hand to provide more information about the scheme and answer any questions.
Traffic and travel: Delays on York Outer Ring Road and York Bypass
Drivers are being warned of heavy traffic on A1237 York Outer Ring Road eastbound between the A19 Shipton Road junction in Rawcliffe and the Monks Cross Link junction in Huntington.

The sun's still shining in Scarborough this afternoon - but it's also a bit windy.

Despite that, Phoebe, 6, from Sheffield and her grandma, Judith, from Huddersfield, are having a great holiday here.
Judith tells me: "Scarborough is family-friendly and fun. It has everything: brilliant beaches and activities."
