Am I being taken for a ride !!!!!!

Can someone help !! I am totally confused by jargon at the garage
I've got a '95 80 2.6E which I love.
In April '05 it failed it's MOT and one of the items was nsf/osf wishbone bushes - so had 2 new wishbones along with other fixes and it then passed.
Have put it in for an early MOT this year at same garage and it has failed on nsf/osf lower suspension arm bushes!!!!!
I'm not very technical but am I right in thinking these are one and the same ?
If not can someone please explain the difference ?

Hi Andy - thanks for clearing that up.
Was same garage - and according to the invoice they replaced both front wishbones in apr 2005 not just the bushes at a cost of £69 quid each fitted.
Front shock absorbers were replaced by same garage in apr 2006
Cars only done 7000 miles since 2005!
By the way - looking thru the repair bills for you is what helped me realise something was a bit amiss - so ya see one good turn ..............

Made that mistake myself when changing the wishbones out. Drove for a couple of hundred miles, then the knocking sound came back - inspected and found I had't tightend front connection bolt properly! Still workable, but will have to rechange the bushing in a couple of thousand miles again
If you work on the car yourself, tighten on ramp, and Always retighten on road
