There doesn't seem to be much by way of evening bus services at the moment, so we wait for the morning and catch the 0740 Hulleys service 172 to Elton, Duke of York arriving at 0822 on Thursday morning.

There was a 218 service back towards Sheffield at 19:33 but that was about it.
We then get the 09:27 Hulleys of Baslow service 172 to Matlock (Bakewell Road), arriving at 09:46 Thursday morning.
We next board the 1014 Stagecoach in Chesterfield Gold service X17 to Heeley (Chesterfield Road/Beeton Road), arriving there at 1122 on Thursday morning.

We next get the 1529 Stagecoach service Sherwood Arrow to Ollerton (Hop Pole), arriving at 16:23 Thursday afternoon.

Strangely enough, Google maps gives no indication like "Stagecoach in Chesterfield" for this service

I think it's just Stagecoach East Midlands, but I could be wrong!

From experience, I remember the local Derby network being very awkwardly timed and very hub and spoke-based, so we take the four minute walk to the bus station and board the 1930 Trent Barton Red Arrow service to Queens Medical Centre (Main Entrance), arriving there at 1955 on Thursday evening.

I think the 35 is due to arrive at 2108, so we are in time to change to the 2116 Nottingham City Transport service 70 to Basford, Zulu Road arriving at 2129 on Thursday.

I was struggling to find this particular departure but there was a timetable change last week!

I think that is the latest departure on that service, so in the morning we return for the 0502 Nottingham City Transport Purple Line service 89 to Nottingham (Parliament Street), arriving there at 0527 on Friday morning.
