Cllr Jonas said: ’It was very funny because Nell was more interested in having a cup of tea than the champagne.
‘Having a free bus pass means freedom. It means pensioners don’t have to be stuck indoors, they can get out and about.
‘If you time it right the sky’s the limit – you can go just about anywhere with it.’
