When and Where did you see 1468 @Will .I saw an open top Olympian but didn't see 1468

It was in the parade amongst the other vehicles & floats how did you not see it lol

[Dylanbusboy45]

I wasn't in Birmingham for the parade so was only half watching the parade whilst looking for NXWM
buses  ;) Noticed the Olympian as its taller than everything else but I must have been photographing something when 1468 went past and it wouldn't have helped that I'm not that tall and can't see over the crowds that well...

Midland Metro (31) > The Hawthorns > Grand Central
LM350252 > New Street > Walsall
Thandi (T88 NND) > 334 > Bradford Place > Bilston
(Very nice bus and DDA compliant! With respect to Thandi they have got some fairly decent buses even though they're only a small operator they are at least trying which is more than Travel Express ever did!)
DIA (20849, KU52RYH) > 43 > Bilston > West Bromwich
(Still a terrible bus it still struggles going up hills! This is the same problem it had when it was in Kidderminster as I remember myself and @Reece were on it once on the 192 and it was struggling up the hill out of West Hagley we did wonder at one point whether we and the rest of the passengers on board would have to get out and help push!!)
DIA (20836, YJ54BUE) > 41 > West Bromwich > Friar Park (and return)
(Where I then bumped into @Nathan, @900 and also @Michael Bevan (who walked off in the opposite direction on seeing me what a total!......)
DIA (30851, BU08DBX) > 16W > West Bromwich > Moor St Queensway
(The driver didn't hang around that's a certain fact 😃 talk about fast & direct! 😝 the bus was empty practically all the way to just before Hamstead where a few people then got on I can't really see the 16W catching on unfortunately)
NXWM (6701, YX15OXT) > 900 > Moor St Queensway > International Station
CEB (YJ57XVW) > 75 > International Station > Sutton Coldfield
(Really made my day seeing this on the 75 😃 I much prefer it to the usual Enviro 300s that are used on there seeing these Versa's pretty much everyday on the 125 in Kidderminster it was quite refreshing to see one on something other than the 125 😃)

Just out of interest, is the Optare decker on any particular working or could it turn up on anything? Back in my 'home' city for a couple of days and was wondering whether it would be about later today.
