Is it just DT ones been done? EA1 is wrapped. That is for the Queens Jubilee... how many times has this been mentioned now that they are two separate adverts.

When Arriva's garage at Garston was still operating, did they ever bid for routes such as 32, 83, 183, 139, 79, h12, 292 and 107? The thought just came to me last night that they would've had a lot more bidding power for routes like these as Garston wasn't exactly a million miles away. I recall seeing something about 292 and 107, do not remember about the rest.

It didn't take long. HV147 in Elizabeth line livery out on route 335 this afternoon. It doesn't go anywhere near the line.
Seen outside IKEA's Greenwich store.

Maybe but it wouldn’t be the first time a garage has wrapped the wrong vehicle - see RR and the lack of a 304 vehicle wearing branding yet the 101 has one instead despite not being part of the changes

I have a rather ambitious idea for next Saturday. I wish to ride routes 34, 102 and maybe 329 such that I accept T, indigenous HV, refurbished ex-Stagecoach HV and SW types but avoid HVs that are frogfaces or unrefurbished ex-Stagecoach ones. I'm not sure how feasible this would be.

Sorry to say this, but I struggle to see how AE garage will stay open with the latest round of service cuts proposals. It will only have the 254 route (already much reduced), at the same time nearby CT garage has a similarly shaped hole left behind by the 242 proposals.
Harsh reality of cutbacks.
