Quite surprising as the 45/47 has been moved to Carrs Lane, that stop is now home to 6/37
I think he means the Boots inside the Bullring the 45/47 stop outside a entrance to it on Smallbrook Queensway @GeminiFan1991

Sadly, it doesn't.
It stops at the stop at the top of Moor Street though and the Bullring is only at the top of the stairs by the stop @clayderman

While on broad st last nite I noticed in my rear view mirror what appeared to be a Wrightbus street deck with the controversial new  front end when the street light caught the paint work it appeared to be pink reminding me of the one at a show last year.  Just wandered if any one else might of seen it around brum yesterday evening.
That is one of Firsts @2900 it was on Rugby world cup shuttles

The 144 is not completely deckers as there is only 9 deckers other than the Streetdecks which are 32852/33039/33042/33043/33401/33402/33403/33404/33405 but I think a few are used on the 44? so there is E300s mixed in with the deckers as well.I saw 33043 and another 330xx today.Worcester also have 32854 but it is withdrawn.
The new Steerdecks are for the 44
The Volvo B7TL ALX400 aren't on that list?

It's a great route to connect parts of the City Centre, though, it's a shame it doesn't serve Birmingham Coach Station anymore... However, today I clocked Diamond still uses that route!
@clayderman  Diamond will be following the same route as NXWM from October 25th and will no longer serve Birmingham Coach Station

Because they need taco's don't they?

Convoy of around 10 buses seen passing Swan, towards Aston Villa. Some with Villa Park destinations and some with Rugby World Cup 2015. Mainly Gemini (all 45xx) and E400MMC (YW ones) and I think two Presidents.

Around 12ish.
Didn't know any Presidents or, 45** Gemini have taco's @Dom ?
