4227 always seems to follow me, and 4249 - which is in two tones of red and needs a trip to the paintshop. 4506 is definitely the least elusive for me (saw it twice today on the 83, yesterday twice on the 82 and it was on the 127-9 on Friday), it's probably the Gemini with the most personality at WB. Red panel above the windscreen, black offside fleet number, rear dot matrix shows numbers in the same format as 4700-4717, as well as 4247, 4522 & 4524

Nearly every time I had drove the 907, it has been 4697. Was quite surprised on New Years Eve to get 4780, as 4697 was parked right next to it in garage!

Had a 902 board out of garage this afternoon, and guess what I was allocated! 4697. I wanted to get an ex-Pensnett Enviro400, but no luck with one yet

4333 now seems to follow me. With me first seeing it on the 76, it has been following me on the 3, 76, 3, 76, 3, 76. Literally like that many times.

I keep getting put on 4880, ot has a nice squeal when accelerating though. The only none boring euro 5 I think!

I keep seeing 4394. On the 2, the 3, 76, all the time I see it, nearly everyday of this week.

Now it is 4363, on the 3, the 2, the 76, the 18. It just keeps on following me.

Always manage to see my favourite MMC, 6101 (Alana) - but only ever rode it twice...

4828/29 are also some top contenders... Always on the 101, when I see them - sometimes the 16, nevertheless, they seem all too powerful on these routes. No more speeding down the Hagley Road, but some laid-back cruising through Hockley, instead ;)
