Under House Arrest day 76

It was dull but not raining as we headed off to Lady Bay to go to the Range. I needed a few art supplies and they have a decent section. However, most of it seemed stripped so, although I got a few bits there are some things I still need which probably means the smiley box peeps will be involved...
Anyhoo, it's a good hours walk from the embankment and back for me, which is about my lot so, we got a bus back into Bridgeford. 
I didn't know at the time but, I must have not put my bus pass in my pocket properly and I've lost it. We figured it out while we waited for the next one to Cotgrave. I rang NCT ( no charm transport!) And they said they'd ring me back if they find it. Kev is a great bloke but, one of his faults is he has no time for stuff like this and gets angry when I lose things, which doesn't help me as I'm already mad at myself. It just makes me feel worse. Anyway, I've ordered a new one which will come in a fortnight hopefully. 
While we were in Bridgeford we had something to eat The Parlour is doing food to takeaway so Kev had an Ostrich burger and I had the veg one called Bombay bad boy... If you are in West Bridgeford I'd highly recommend them. They are a small business trying to keep afloat by whatever they can. The nimbys had complained about them serving takeaway cocktails so they can't do that anymore. ( But you can go in the Co-op and buy alcohol there) doesn't make sense, when all they are trying to do is keep afloat. 
The Cotgrave driver was lovely because I had to ask how much it was on the bus now and he said "you have a pass" When I said I'd lost it, he let me on anyway without paying. 
It also meant that I have lost my cardholder which came with my Shakespeare bag from Yoshi. So I went on their site and they do sell them separately, and I put one in my basket to check out. When I got to pay, it came up with a little box that said I had previously got this item and had it broken? I replied no I'd lost it and they promptly knocked £2 off the cost. How lovely, really great customer service! 
Right that's all my news for now... Take care...
